| parzzix | Hello? | 02:01 |
|---|---|---|
| parzzix | I'm looking to get involved....need guidance and place to start..off to bed, but if you see this shoot me an email at tim at apples dot email..thanks | 02:58 |
| valorie | parzzix: please join the Kubuntu-devel list and tell us all what you are interested in doing | 04:00 |
| valorie | and we'll do our best to point you in the right direction | 04:00 |
| valorie | or just talk to me now | 04:00 |
| fewcha_ | How to install Qt 5.4 in Kubuntu? | 05:06 |
| fewcha_ | I was trying to build plasma from source from https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Building but when I am running kdesrc-build, it is giving the following error when it is trying to build kxmlrpcclient (build system KDE) from frameworks: https://paste.kde.org/p40jti5si/eumyas | 05:19 |
| fewcha_ | I wanted to contribute to the kde plasma-mediacenter, but since it is not possible to build the plasma-mediacenter separately from source because it has runtime deps to plasma-workspace, so I need to build plasma-workspace before that | 05:20 |
| fewcha_ | and for that I need Qt 5.4 in my system | 05:20 |
| fewcha_ | so can someone please tell me how to install Qt 5.4 in Kubuntu 14.04.2 LTS ? | 05:21 |
| fewcha_ | Only qt4-x11 is there in the Kubuntu backports as shown in https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports/+index?batch=75&direction=backwards&memo=825&start=750 | 05:23 |
| fewcha_ | although libqt5core5a is already installed and the newest version | 05:25 |
| fewcha_ | and dpkg -l|grep -e libqt |grep -e dev is giving output https://paste.kde.org/p0d5khqkn/dhp7i1 so I am not sure what I am missing | 05:27 |
| valorie | hi fewcha_ -- I would ask in #kde-devel | 06:24 |
| valorie | most of our devels are gone this particular weekend | 06:24 |
| valorie | you probably will get most of the dependencies you need with something like sudo apt install build-dep plasma-workspace plasma-mediacenter | 06:25 |
| valorie | or so | 06:25 |
| fewcha_ | valorie: okay | 06:29 |
| fewcha_ | thanks | 06:29 |
| fewcha_ | :) | 06:29 |
| valorie | good luck | 06:30 |
| fewcha_ | :) | 06:31 |
| fewcha_ | valorie: well, here's what I am getting anyway: https://paste.kde.org/pewfexu6t/gy6q7f | 07:11 |
| valorie | oops, leave out `install` | 07:18 |
| valorie | my mistake | 07:18 |
| fewcha_ | ah, okay :) | 07:18 |
| valorie | build-dep is a command, not a packaGE | 07:18 |
| valorie | and you may have to do that twice | 07:18 |
| valorie | once for plasma-workspace and once for plasma-mediacenter | 07:19 |
| valorie | but try it for both to save time | 07:19 |
| fewcha_ | okay | 07:19 |
| fewcha_ | valorie: "sudo apt build-dep anything" is showing "E: Invalid operation build-dep" | 07:21 |
| valorie | that's strange | 07:22 |
| valorie | works for me | 07:22 |
| valorie | I'm building amarok right now | 07:22 |
| * fewcha_ is going through https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1310294 | 07:22 | |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1310294 in apt (Ubuntu) "apt is missing build-dep changelog and source commands." [Low,New] | 07:22 |
| valorie | I just ran `sudo apt-get build-dep amarok` | 07:22 |
| valorie | ewww | 07:23 |
| fewcha_ | oh its apt-get | 07:23 |
| fewcha_ | sorry | 07:23 |
| valorie | ah, apt is behind apt-get for that I guess | 07:23 |
| valorie | I usually use apt, and if that doesn't work, fall back to the oldie but goody apt-get | 07:23 |
| fewcha_ | okies :) | 07:24 |
| fewcha_ | hmm, i think it worked | 07:25 |
| fewcha_ | but that's not what I require to fix the problem imo | 07:29 |
| fewcha_ | let me just see what the kde-devel guys have to say about this :) | 07:30 |
| valorie | get more dependencies installed is never a bad thing | 07:30 |
| fewcha_ | hmm, right :) | 07:32 |
| fewcha_ | actually I tried a "sudo apt-get build-dep kxmlrpcclient" as well | 07:33 |
| fewcha_ | but it's unable to find a source package for that | 07:33 |
| valorie | !info kxmlrpcclient | 07:35 |
| ubottu | Package kxmlrpcclient does not exist in wily | 07:35 |
| valorie | !info kxmlrpc | 07:36 |
| ubottu | Package kxmlrpc does not exist in wily | 07:36 |
| fewcha_ | btw, kxmlrpcclient because https://paste.kde.org/pokb6fxjb/ekwe5n | 07:37 |
| valorie | $ apt-cache search kxmlrpc | 07:37 |
| valorie | libkblog4 - client-side support library for web application remote blogging APIs | 07:37 |
| valorie | libkf5xmlrpcclient-data - data files for kxmlrpcclient | 07:37 |
| valorie | libkf5xmlrpcclient-dbg - debug symbols for kxmlrpcclient | 07:37 |
| valorie | libkf5xmlrpcclient-dev - development files for kxmlrpcclient | 07:37 |
| valorie | libkxmlrpcclient4 - simple XML-RPC client library | 07:37 |
| valorie | you probably need the -dev | 07:37 |
| fewcha_ | oh | 07:38 |
| valorie | apt-cache search helps | 07:38 |
| valorie | if at first it finds nothing, take off some characters | 07:38 |
| fewcha_ | its showing me libkblog4 and libkxmlrpcclient4 | 07:38 |
| valorie | notice what I searched for | 07:39 |
| fewcha_ | yeah I have done that only | 07:39 |
| fewcha_ | rpc | 07:39 |
| valorie | apt-cache policy packagename shows you what you have installed | 07:39 |
| valorie | I think apt show does about the saem | 07:40 |
| valorie | same | 07:40 |
| fewcha_ | okay | 07:40 |
| fewcha_ | so I am installing libkf5xmlrpcclient-data, libkf5xmlrpcclient-dbg, and libkf5xmlrpcclient-dev then | 07:41 |
| valorie | and you can use ^ as a wildcard sometimes | 07:41 |
| valorie | if you just do -dev, it will pull in what you need | 07:41 |
| valorie | simpler | 07:41 |
| valorie | I've never done kdesrc-build so I'm not able to make sense of your whole paste | 07:42 |
| fewcha_ | hmm | 07:43 |
| valorie | but trying to build amarok, I'm coming up with the same "Unable to compile a basic Qt application. Qt has not been found correctly." | 07:43 |
| valorie | so I'm thinking there is a common problem here | 07:44 |
| fewcha_ | hmm, so how did you fix it when you got that the first time? | 07:44 |
| fewcha_ | is there any way to build plasma-mediacenter without using kdesrc-build? | 07:45 |
| valorie | I didn't | 07:45 |
| valorie | ah, I don't think so | 07:45 |
| valorie | I read #kde-devel and #plasma | 07:45 |
| valorie | and that's how everyone does it | 07:45 |
| valorie | but those are the folks you need to ask | 07:46 |
| valorie | bshah is very helpful if he's about | 07:46 |
| fewcha_ | I cloned mediacenter separately locally and when I do "cmake -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kf5-config --prefix` .." from its build folder I get an error starting with "kf5-config: command not found" | 07:48 |
| fewcha_ | yeah, I have talked to him recently in private | 07:48 |
| valorie | he's in this chan as well so he must be not at his keyboard, or not looking at IRC | 07:49 |
| fewcha_ | he said that I need to install Qt 5.4 in my system to run kdesrc-build correctly and told me to ask it in #kubuntu and they further asked me to ask in #kubuntu-devel | 07:49 |
| valorie | it's nearly 1 am here, so I'm going to write to amarok-devel list about my error and see if I get any insight there | 07:50 |
| fewcha_ | he also told me to ask it in #kde-devel as well :) | 07:50 |
| fewcha_ | okay, thanks a lot :) | 07:50 |
| valorie | !info qt | 07:50 |
| ubottu | Package qt does not exist in wily | 07:50 |
| valorie | right, tell me the packagename silly ubottu | 07:51 |
| fewcha_ | haha :D | 07:51 |
| valorie | https://wiki.qt.io/Install_Qt_5_on_Ubuntu | 07:52 |
| fewcha_ | hmm, I have gone through that, but maybe it is for 5.0.2 | 07:53 |
| valorie | seems taht `sudo apt-get install build-essential libgl1-mesa-dev` might be useful | 07:54 |
| * valorie tries | 07:54 | |
| valorie | I already have it | 07:54 |
| valorie | grrrr | 07:54 |
| fewcha_ | so do I :D | 07:55 |
| fewcha_ | btw, this: https://paste.kde.org/pcy2gdzia/qcqstr in case it helps | 07:57 |
| valorie | I hope never to mess with cmake past pasting in the correct command | 07:58 |
| valorie | of course apt search qt filled bash's buffer | 08:00 |
| valorie | there has to be a meta-package | 08:00 |
| valorie | maybe muon will tell me | 08:00 |
| valorie | aha, qtbase5-dev | 08:02 |
| valorie | version 5.4.1 | 08:03 |
| valorie | not sure that's right, but you can ask | 08:03 |
| valorie | I doubt I need that for amarok | 08:04 |
| fewcha_ | hmm, qtbase5-dev seems to be already installed here | 08:27 |
| valorie | ok | 08:35 |
| * valorie has got to head bedward | 08:35 | |
| valorie | I hope you can get some help later | 08:36 |
| fewcha_ | valorie: cool, btw please let me know when you get some reply from the amarok-devel list | 08:36 |
| fewcha_ | thanks :) | 08:37 |
| fewcha_ | nite | 08:37 |
| fewcha_ | :) | 08:37 |
| valorie | ah, I already found out that trying to build a Qt4 application with Qt5 won't work | 08:37 |
| fewcha_ | okay | 08:38 |
| valorie | has to be a separate install, separately pointed to | 08:38 |
| * valorie has not enough time to set that up | 08:38 | |
| fewcha_ | cool | 08:38 |
| fewcha_ | will talk later then :) | 08:38 |
| santa_ | good morning | 09:54 |
| santa_ | valorie: you don't need a separate installation to build qt programs, this is the script I'm using to call cmake for building krecipes: https://paste.kde.org/pwxgprmlv | 09:54 |
| santa_ | export QT_SELECT=4 is the important bit | 09:55 |
| murthy_ | need to paste image, which one should I use? | 10:20 |
| santa_ | I guess can use this one: http://imagebin.ca/ | 10:22 |
| murthy_ | http://imagebin.ca/v/27Sckxd8zprg | 10:29 |
| murthy_ | I am trying to troubleshoot my kubuntu 15.04. The problem is it takes 3 mins to shutdown. I found that kactivitymanager segfaults using dmesg and so I opened it in gdb to find the above error. Can kactivitymanager be disabled for testing purpose and is it safe? | 10:32 |
| murthy_ | Further guidance to find the bug would be helpful | 10:32 |
| santa_ | murthy_: could you check if you have libqt5sql5-sqlite installed? | 10:33 |
| murthy_ | santa_: ya, its installed, I check it now. I had seen the error message and found the line libqt5sql so so I found the containing package which you told me. I even reinstalled it yesterday, just in case it got corrupted. I checked all the packages with debsums | 10:36 |
| murthy_ | santa_: Can I run a check on the sql database in my system | 10:37 |
| murthy_ | santa_: Can a corrupt database cause lead kactivitymanager to segfault? I am not able to get a backtrace since the process crashes after the shutdown gets initiated. You could see that in the image | 10:39 |
| murthy_ | santa_: Yesterday I pasted my kernel log here. If you want to take a look I will give you | 10:40 |
| murthy_ | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kactivities-kf5/+bug/1445167 | 10:44 |

| lordievader | Good afternoon. | 12:40 |
| valorie | santa, thanks so much! I will try it | 20:14 |

| valorie | now time to water the flowers; we are suffering extreme heat | 20:29 |
| vip | if i can say something, just drink water (or tea) to prevent stroke | 20:41 |
| valorie | oh yes, this is the second week of the heat wave here | 20:53 |
| valorie | lots and lots of water and some coffee too | 20:53 |
| valorie | fortunately I have a/c so I can recover | 20:53 |

| parzzix | hey lordievader, its a book | 22:30 |
| lordievader | Ah, I started with codecademy and then started my own projects in python3. | 22:31 |
| valorie | parzzix: many people began by trying to fix/improve/invent something they wanted | 22:41 |
| valorie | that person itch to make it happen seems to help folks over the hard bits | 22:41 |
