Larvitz :fedora: :redhat:<p>The Dolphin file manager in KDE Plasma Desktop now got a cute dolphin on the icon since the most recent update. aww, really like that nice touch 🙂 </p><p><a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde</span></a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/dolphin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dolphin</span></a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/plasma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasma</span></a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> <a href="https://burningboard.net/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a></p>
jloc0<p>Oh and yes I’d done the arm64 <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackwareaarch64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slackwareaarch64</span></a> packages as well around the same time. Hopefully this weekend, I can finalize the changes for the all-in-one repo on arm64. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/lxqt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lxqt</span></a></p>
jloc0<p>Ok, I still haven’t grasped the proper formatting for ChangeLog.txt being parsed through the gen_repo_files but I’m getting somewhere with it. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> gear 25.04.0 is up, there’s 3 new deps (like unstable had), and <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/lxqt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lxqt</span></a> 2.2.0 is up as well on Intel. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/#news" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">slackware.lngn.net/#news</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
jloc0<p>I had been spending so much time worrying about <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> on x86-64 I hadn’t realized I’d built the entire arm64 over but left the /etc/kde intact. 🫠 Luckily, I was doing installs and tests and found my mistake before I uploaded the repo. Anyone on <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackwareaarch64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slackwareaarch64</span></a> waiting for the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> rebuild… it’s ready and all good, and I’ll be pushing it live tomorrow ahead of the next gear 25.04.0 release which will come this weekend for both platforms. Holding off a bit on restructured arm64 repo as well.</p>
jloc0<p>I pushed a small update for <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slackware</span></a> for mpvqt-1.1.1 and dep rebuilds. Gloriously jacked up the ChangeLog again as well (I literally cannot find the doc that explains the formatting anymore) I’ll get it someday. <a href="https://slackware.lngn.net/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">slackware.lngn.net/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> I still need to fix the site info, but I’m out of time till the weekend.</p>

jloc0<p>The unstable <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> 25.03.90 builds have been completed. Uploads are pending. <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/nwgshell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nwgshell</span></a> repos have been taken care of for the most part, and the latest <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/libreoffice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>libreoffice</span></a> for arm64 is also ready to go. I just need to get everything in place. That leaves <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gnome</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/webkitgtk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>webkitgtk</span></a> (which usually needs a patch) for me to look at yet, both need some rebuilds though.</p>
jloc0<p>I pushed icu4c rebuilds to <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slackware</span></a> repo today.

jloc0<p>Icu4c appears to have been updated in <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/slackware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slackware</span></a> today while I’ve been working. I’ll get rebuilds out in some hours for the effected <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/kde6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kde6</span></a> packages. Did KDE ever drop the next gear beta? That was supposed to be today as well. Ah well, we’ll get it all soon enough.</p>

MarkusIs there a bug in KDE Plasma 6.3.1 that prevents the creation of icons (not shortcuts)? Previously, for example, you could drag a program icon from /usr/share/applications/ onto the desktop and choose whether to create an icon or a shortcut. Now the option to create an icon is missing. Does anyone know anything about this?<br><br>#<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">linux</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=KDE6" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">KDE6</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=KDEPlasma" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">KDEPlasma</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=kdeplasma6" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">kdeplasma6</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=kdeplasma6.3" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">kdeplasma6.3</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=bug" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">bug</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=desktop" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">desktop</a> #<a class="" href="https://hubzilla.markusgarlichs.de/search?tag=desktoplinux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">desktoplinux</a>
