Hi ! I can remember that someone spoke about a hack k3b package. Maybe the following from k3b mailinglist is usefull for that :)
--------------------------------------- new version of the K3b CVS "snapshooter" is available at: http://fenrir.infoiasi.ro/~xcyborg/k3b/cvs/k3b-cvs.sh Features: - checks out the latest CVS version of K3b and creates a tar.bz2 archive with the proper name (e.g. k3b-0.10.CVS.20030831.tar.bz2) - automatically checks the K3b version (from src/main.cpp) and sets the directory and the output filename accordingly - supports the following output formats: tar.gz, tar.bz2 (default) and src.rpm (the source rpm was originally intended for Red Hat 9, but it can be rebuilt on other Linux distributions, too) - it can apply a patch to the sources before the output file is created - it can checkout, compile and install K3b from CVS from one single command ( k3b-cvs -i ) - inside the archive a file INFO-SNAPSHOT is created which contains informations about who took the snapshot, when, where (the hostname) and the patches that were applied to the original CVS sources For hints about other commands available see the help message: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SRPMS]# ./k3b-cvs.sh --help K3b CVS "snapshooter" v0.2 - Mihai Maties <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://fenrir.infoiasi.ro/~xcyborg/k3b/ -c the equivalent of a 'make clean' command -d workdir the 'workdir' directory is used as working directory instead of current directory -h|--help this help screen -i compiles and installs the latest version of K3b on your system ( the equivallent of './configure && make && make install' ) -j select 'tar.bz2' output format ( default option ) -m compiles the K3b snapshot ( the equivallent of './configure && make' ) -p patchfile apply 'patchfile' to the sources. The patch is applied in the top level directory with the '-p1' paramater ( see 'man patch' for more info ) -s select 'src.rpm' output format -o outputdir write the output file into the specified directory -v verbose -z select 'tar.gz' output format
