kbabel degenerating

The version that came out with 3.5.5 has lost the diff function, it still does 
not count correctly. The diff function is serious, I can not use this version 
because of that. I suppose there is no maintainer and I am not a programmer. 
It does not bode well for translation in the future if we can not count on 
our main tool. I downgraded to 3.5.3 again. That still works reasonably. 
3.5.4 did not work for me at all, but I have forgotten what the problem was.

New kdelibs/kutils/kpluginselector

Hi guys,

Beautiful news !! (at least for me). I've finished rewriting this stuff:

* kdelibs/kutils/kpluginselector.cpp
* kdelibs/kutils/kpluginselector.h
* kdelibs/kutils/kpluginselector_p.h

All issues that happened on the old class have been fixed. I've improved the user experience, through:

* The QTreeWidget will be resized if QSplitter resized
* The "Default" button works, I think it didn't work for me in the past
* No KTabWidget on the plugin list
* Instead of KTabWidget (we would force the user to more clicks to examine all available plugins [one per category]), I've listed all available plugins into the QTreeWidget, but separated by a visual separator (See snapshot). With this improvement, the user can see all available plugins in one fast seek.
* Dependencies have been improved this way:
     - If we check an item, we check its dependencies (this was in the old class too)
     - If we uncheck an item, we uncheck all items that depends on that item (new [was a FIXME])

For achieving all these goals, I had to start the class almost from scratch, but the result is really pretty from my point of view.

You can check code and snapshot at http://www.ereslibre.es/kdedev too.

Waiting for your comments ;)

Bye,
Rafael Fernández López.

After contacting with #kde-usability at IRC, the category titles are aligned at left, and have been fixed some issues with the focus.

Waiting for your comments ;)

Bye,
Rafael Fernández López.

USE_LOGIN_CAP problem building kdm on FreeBSD

Hi,
I can't build 3.5 branch kdm on FreeBSD. The error is:
/home/phil/kdesrc/kdebase/kdm/backend/client.c: In function `StartClient':
/home/phil/kdesrc/kdebase/kdm/backend/client.c:1268: error: `lc' undeclared 
(first use in this function)

Looking at client.c, I notice that lc is declared inside "#ifdef 
USE_LOGIN_CAP" but it's used on line 1268 without being wrapped in "#ifdef 
USE_LOGIN_CAP"

In case it's useful, you can find my config.h at:
http://users.ox.ac.uk/~chri1802/stuff/config.h

Regards,
Philip

Just for your information: I'm waiting for my laptop to return from repairs. I 
will postpone a review until then.

From a short look: I really like the KTabWidget -> QTreeWidget change. That's 
very good!

Regarding the Default button I remember that there was some issue, but I 
really need to look at the code (and probably history) again. I will do that 
when my laptop is back...

the simplest thing to do was backporting a patch i didn't intend to
backport originally, so some testing involving playing with login caps
in "fun" ways wouldn't hurt.

64bitness


Hello

The bug report https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136649 brought to the 
forefront a question which I vaguely asked myself in the past (prompted by my 
daily non-kde work on parallel 32bit vs 64bit code).

This question is:
has there been investigation in the issues of DCOP communication on 64bits 
platforms? Given that an unexpectedly large percentage of Linux machines runs 
on 64bit platforms, and given the intricacies of common marshalling technique 
on diverging architectures, the answer would probably be positive. It remains 
that exhaustive testing is prohibitive. Did somebody give thought to the 
issue yet?

But, most importantly, was DBUS audited with respect to the potential 64 bit 
incompatibilities yet? (Although I would really hope the very design was 
based on sound understanding of the issues -- which I couldn't pretend I 
have, either).

More practically, I looked at the need for a similar patch in the HEAD code on 
what bug 1366349 proposes for kde3. I couldn't realise by myself it such 
patch was indeed needed or not. Could somebody help by illuminating my 
ignorance?

Thanks a lot
