Unfortunately Stack Overflow and the Windows forum are full of interoperability issues. Sounds good that you had no issues though. I am envy. :-) > For pacman: pacman is as far as I know only part of msys2 , and quite useful > there to install dev tools etc, but it is of no use for us, as we don't want > users to install msys to install kde. Yes, but we do not want end users to install emerge, etc, either. :-) In other words: it can be managed without ithese helper softwares n my opinion. > and we don't want to develop stuff inside of msys. I am personally very much interested in getting that workflow forward. I think it could be nice to get everything done properly for KDE development. Consider that the KDE Arch developer nicely built up frameworks development packages. I think it would cool to get them ported over and share some work with a Linux distribution in that sense. Please do not get me wrong. I am not saying emerge would not remain useful. It is all about personal choice I guess. :) PS.: I should have probably continued with this email on the kde-windows mailing list though, as it is getting a bit too technical... So pardon me. _______________________________________________ kde-community mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-community
