what's the best way to get someone with packaging power to update Tellico and Skrooge (both official KDE projects btw)

Is this a squeeky-wheel-gets-grease situation? Or something specific I should do? Or powerless to do anything?

I think that Skrooge, Tellico and all other applications should be packaged in KDE Neon.

Regards.

They are both provided in neon:

Code: Select all

> apt-cache policy tellico skrooge

Would be very nice if the KF5 version of KBibTex could be provided.

kbibtext is on the todo

Thank you.

Maybe Firefox with KDE patches can also be added? The plasmazilla ppa is unluckily not fast with updates and minor updates are often not delivered.

KDE Telepathy is at the moment not complete and so in the actual version 17.04.3 not installable. Maybe someone can add the missing packages. Also there are a problem with the version numbers. Seems to be that APT thinks that 15.12 is newer.

Maybe you can add then also kile as KF5 version

Btw. why is there a updated package for the k3b translations, but for k3b itself?

Guys,

Where can I found the complete list of Neon apps? User and User LTS (separately, as they are in different repos?) I mean the ones packaged by Neon, not the Ubuntu fall-backs.

I'll try to find out in Konsole.

@raddison

Maybe, start like this:
$ apt search '.*' | grep -A 1 'neon' | less -S

Yep. Not bad. Almost everything for an everyday user.

Please get packaged K3B and Qupzilla. Those are obsolete Ubuntu fallbacks. I could build them from source but I'd rather have them packaged by Neon, if possible.

@NoName You know too much.

@raddison

# How about this one?

# It's one single line: Copy "apti… … …ess -S" and paste and RETURN.

# Install aptitude first if You have not already.
# Then do "aptitude update"

# Here it comes:
$ aptitude -w 150 -F "%54p|%94dX" search '?origin(neon)' | command grep -E -v '\-dbgsym |\-dev |\-dbg ' | less -S

Have Fun!

Don't wanna hijack this thread but I have one more simple question.

Whenever I sudo apt install an app, it's first checked if it exists in Neon's repo. If it does, it gets installed from there. If the app is not present in Neon's repo, then it's pulled in from Ubuntu's repo. Is that correct?
