[3] - We should review all other pages for needed changes. o Status of konq-plugins: - konq-plugins contains additional plugins for konqueror (mostly from former kdeaddons). - The package will be submitted for review ASAP. - But it still needs some testing because it's unmaintained upstream. o kmix/mute doesn't work: - The bug was not reproducible by other KDE SIG members. - So not working muting in kmix seems to be a local/configuration issue. o Open discussion: - kaudiocreator: * kaudiocreator is too unstable to ship it. * So it will be marked as deferred from KDE4Status (so that FeatureKDE4 is able to reach 100%). - PackageKit: * OpenSuse seems to be developing a KDE4 frontend for PackageKit. [4] * But Fedora 9 will ship gnome-packagekit as a frontend. * pk-update-icon isn't automatically started at login because it is located in /usr/share/gnome/autostart. * Bug #437048 will be re-opened to request moving it to /etc/xdg/autostart. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Next Meeting = http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/KDE/Meetings/2008-03-25 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- = Links = [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/DesktopUserGuide [2] http://mwiriadi.livejournal.com/4529.html [3] http://mwiriadi.livejournal.com/4529.html?thread=4785#t4785 [4] http://wire.dattitu.de/archives/2008/03/15/KDE4-port-of-openSUSE-Updater,-KDE-4.1-snapshot-4.0.66,-FOSDEM-talk.html = Buglist = https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=378041 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428212 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437048 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=437962
