-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2007-2260 2007-09-25 08:25:11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : kde-filesystem Product : Fedora 7 Version : 3.92 Release : 9.fc7 URL : [] Summary : KDE filesystem layout Description : This package provides some directories that are required/used by KDE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update contains KDE 4.0 (beta) development libraries. The following new packages are provided: * kdelibs4: KDE 4 libraries * kdepimlibs: KDE 4 PIM libraries * kdebase4: KDE 4 core runtime files These packages can be used to develop, build and run KDE 4 applications within KDE 3 or any other desktop environment. The kdebase4 package also includes a beta version of the Dolphin file manager as a technology preview. One known issue is that Dolphin currently fails to start up when run from the KDE 3 menu, it works when run from Konsole. There may also be other issues. If you need a stable version of Dolphin, please install the d3lphin package, which is based on KDE 3 and can be safely installed next to kdebase4. These packages are designed to: * comply with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) and * be completely safe to install in parallel with KDE 3, including the -devel packages. In order to achieve this, we made 2 changes to the -devel packages: * the library symlinks are installed to /usr/lib(64)/kde4/devel, * kconfig_compiler and makekdewidgets have been renamed kconfig_compiler4 and makekdewidgets4, respectively. These changes should be completely transparent to KDE 4 applications using cmake to build (the vast majority) because we also patched FindKDE4Internal.cmake to match these changes. Note that kdebase4 does NOT include the KDE 4 Desktop (kdebase-workspace, i.e. Plasma, KWin version 4 etc.), which is still too incomplete and unstable for daily use and which would conflict with KDE 3. In addition, updated versions of: * kde-filesystem, to include directories and RPM macros needed by KDE 4 and * kdelibs (3.5.7), to remove the no longer needed package-level conflict with kdelibs4-devel from kdelibs-devel are provided with this update. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated packages: beb755a26e5059154ed2a20aec3b26f00c78117f kde-filesystem-3.92-9.fc7.noarch.rpm a99d8544f0d0f91f97cfc22905b448e98cd18ad8 kde-filesystem-3.92-9.fc7.src.rpm This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
