Bug ID: 513369
Summary: Support for derived linux distributions in
initial_setup.sh script for kde-builder
Classification: Developer tools
Product: buildsystem
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
While attempting to install kde-builder on a Debian-derived distribution (Kali
Linux) using the initial_setup.sh script, I encountered the following warning:
Warning: Unsupported OS: kali, skipping installation of runtime packages.
Kali Linux is Debian-based and, in practice, closely aligned with Debian. I was
able to complete the installation by modifying the script to treat kali the
same as debian.
Would it be appropriate to update the script to allow certain Debian-derived
distributions, such as Kali Linux? Otherwise, users may be required to switch
operating systems in order to develop or test KDE applications, despite using a
compatible Debian-based environment.
