Phonon is a dependency of Qt (for webkit) so it makes no sense to release it as anything other than part of Qt. If the version has to change outwith Qt releases there should be a blessed patch or updated tar from Qt.

Everything else needs to be optional (I already told Marco about this for mplayerthumbs). Thanks. By the way, videopreview.so crashes on the gstreamer backend: if he added a feature to the Xine backend, he should add to the other backends as well. Or at least post to kdemultimedia asking for help (which he didn't). I only found out about this by accident: I happened to do tail -f ~/.xsession- errors while using Dolphin in a directory with .avi files. Anyways, we're still not clear whether we'll need a new minor release of Phonon with Qt 4.6. I think so, because of the S60 backend, but we'll see. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org Senior Product Manager - Nokia, Qt Software PGP/GPG: 0x6EF45358; fingerprint: E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Kde-buildsystem mailing list Kde-buildsystem@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-buildsystem

Correct. If you have problems with FindPhonon.cmake not finding the Qt- installed Phonon, let me know and we'll supply the necessary files. Note that some KDE apps are using Phonon private API (phononexperimental) and will not compile with the Qt version. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org PGP/GPG: 0x6EF45358; fingerprint: E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Kde-buildsystem mailing list Kde-buildsystem@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-buildsystem
