KDE 4.5.1 will get Slackware packages… not sure when and where

Some of you may have noticed that source tarballs for KDE 4.5.1 are available now.
I talked to Pat about this last week, to see if this release could end up in Slackware-current. He answered that that would be a possibility. There are several other things brewing for slackware-current, so I have no real good estimate [...]

KDE 4.5.0

KDE 4.5.0 is available!
… and I can offer you packages for KDE Software Compilation 4.5.0 for Slackware-current. The 4.5.0 packages are accompanied by a README which explains the straight-forward  installation/upgrade steps. As always, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available.
This marks another milestone for the KDE project with numerous improvements to the KDE 4.4 [...]

Second release candidate for KDE 4.5

The KDE team is relentless. There was a 4.4.5 release very recently, and the first release candidate for the upcoming 4.5 is not that old yet.
Still, already we have the next installment (and it was announced on the dot so fast that I was not able to finish compiling my packages in time)… the second [...]

KDE SC 4.4.5 for Slackware 13.1

Well folks, we had short discussion about who would do the first build of KDE SC 4.4.5 for Slackware. But since Pat is on other duties at the moment, I took the opportunity to release a set of packages for the recently released KDE Software Compilation 4.4.5. ( KDE people, there is a lack [...]

Release candidate 1 of KDE SC 4.5

The sources of KDE Software Compilation 4.4.90 (which is  in fact Release Candidate 1 of the upcoming KDE 4.5) have been available on KDE’s ftp server for some days now.
There is still no official announcement from KDE team about this RC1 but it will without doubt appear soon on kde.org after the weekend.
In the [...]

You can download 32-bit as well as 64-bit packages. Many of the dependencies have been updated, some have been added. Read the README in the top-directory for full installation/upgrade instructions, or [...]

It’s been released: KDE SC 4.4.0

The KDE community has announced the immediate availability of the KDE Software Compilation 4.4.0 (“KDE SC” is the new name of what used to be called just “KDE“). In preparation for this event, the kde.org website was re-vamped yesterday to reflect their “shift in marketing and promotion vocabulary”. Looks shiny and new! Also, I [...]

KDE3, KDE4 and Slackware 13.0

A bit of history… I realized that just a year ago, KDE 4.2.rc1 got added to Slackware’s “/testing” area.
With all the recent posts on this blog about KDE4 and me telling people how nice I think this version of KDE is, I realize that “liking” is a very personal expression of feelings. A feeling shared [...]

Second beta of KDE 4.4

Just before christmas in 2009, the KDE community released the second beta of the upcoming KDE 4.4 desktop environment (or to use the correct name, KDE Software Compilation 4.4).
In Slackware Linux’s development tree we still have 4.3.4 which works really well, but in KDE 4.4 some major strides are being made towards an even better [...]
