The latest KCalc does away with button groups in favor of "modes" (i.e. "Simple mode", "Science mode", etc.). I find this very inconvenient compared to the older version, where I was able to select which groups of buttons I wanted displayed.

Is there a way to get the old functionality with the new version (I can't get the older version to compile with KDE 4.5.1)?

It likely isn't possible. The developer of KCalc may have other suggestions however.

bad news(((

Some days ago I have updated KDE, today I have opened kcalc and have been strongly disappointed. Now it is necessary to go on sf.net and to search to itself for the new calculator.

In total some applications it is tenacious hold me on KDE:
akregator, kmail, kcalc, ktorrent, konversation.
Now kcalc it is eliminated.

PS. It is a pity that developers truncate a functional of applications, it will be soon the environment for morons, sorry.

Have you tried contacting the KCalc maintainer as I suggested?

Yep. But no answer
