Hi, you are right, the packages I created are for sid only. python-kde3 is currently uninstallable in sid, since it has not yet been rebuild against libqt3-mt with g++ resp. Ricardo did not yet upload the new packages. > Next I figure I'll compile the latest snapshot of PyKDE from the > Riverbank site, but after some minutes I get a compile error in the > kdeui module (looks like a GCC 4 problem). > You cannot compile python-kde3 in etch with g++ 4, since qt3 (libqt3c102-mt) is still compiled with g++ 3.3, so you have to use that one. You should however (I'm just guessing here) be able to download the sources for python-kde3 3.11.3-4 from unstable with $ apt-get source python-kde3 Then switch into the created directory (sth. like python-kde3_3.11.3-3) and hit $ fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage (make sure you have installed dpkg-dev and fakeroot installed). Maybe dpkg-buildpackage tells you that you are missing some build-dependencies, install them as well. Depending on the speed of your machine, you should end up with debs of python-kde3. python-kde3 will not go into etch for quite some time, since the ABI transition is way from complete. And there's quite a stack of packages, it needs libqt3-mt, and kdelibs4c2 (from KDE 3.4.x) in etch first. greetings Torsten - -- Torsten Marek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ID: A244C858 -- FP: 1902 0002 5DFC 856B F146 894C 7CC5 451E A244 C858 Keyserver: subkeys.pgp.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDO8X7fMVFHqJEyFgRAlFvAJ9lo1g+tR5CwHTCxBes2rSOg8iIMACgwDNy naFVaLBchGkMQRyAuGL2r5I= =UYiq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [email protected] http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
