SUSE 10.1 and KDE 3.5.2 Updates

by @ 4:49 pm. Filed under Virus, KDE, SUSE

I am happy to inform that updates for KDE 3.5.2 are slowly reaching repository for SUSE 10.1.

If you have not yet set up your Yast repository, then simply add the following address:

Protocol: HTTP
Server: ftp.suse.com
For 64bit:
pub/suse/x86_64/supplementary/KDE/update_for_10.1/yast-source
For 32bit:
pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_10.1/yast-source

It will be a good idea to later to use mirrors for the above mentioned repository links, which can be found at opensuse.org website, once uploaded to servers.

The current list of my x86_64 repositories:

P.S. Check out the Most Annoying Bugs section for 10.1.

KDE 3: All About the Apps

by @ 7:27 pm. Filed under Virus, Reviews, KDE

Until KDE 3.5, when a KDE release was frozen in preparation to be released, new features, and new user-visible text (strings) were not allowed in the later releases in the series, in order to make sure that no new bugs were introduced and no translations were broken. For KDE 3.5 this has been changed slightly.

Since the KDE 4.0 development cycle will take longer than usual due to the scope of the changes and improvements being undertaken, the developers want KDE 3.5.x to be the best possible KDE for users in the meantime. Therefore, KDE 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 not only fixed a lot of bugs (see 3.5.1-fixes and 3.5.2-fixes), but the developers were also allowed to change some strings in KDE so that many usability-improvements and updates in documentation found their way into KDE 3.5.x.
