Building KDE4 From Source (Fedora Linux requirements)

Tutorial Series	Getting Started
Previous	Build KDE
What's Next	Build KDE
Further Reading	kdesvn-build: The KDE From Subversion Build Tool KDE Build Environment including useful scripts Introduction to CMake

[edit] Toolchain

Install basic toolchain:

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'

yum install subversion cmake

Install the yum-utils package to get yum-builddep:

yum install yum-utils

On Fedora 16 kdesrc-build will complain about qmake being missing. It is located at /usr/bin/qmake-qt4. Simply create a symbolic for qmake:

ln -s qmake-qt4 /usr/bin/qmake

[edit] Basic functional desktop

for pkg in kdelibs kde-baseapps kde-workspace \
    kde-runtime akonadi soprano polkit-qt strigi; \
    do yum-builddep $pkg; done

[edit] Full-optionals desktop

for pkg in kdeaccessibility kdeadmin kdeartwork \
    kde-baseapps kde-workspace kde-runtime \
    kdebindings kdeedu kdegames kdegraphics \
    kdelibs kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdepim \
    kdepimlibs kdeplasma-addons kdesdk kdetoys \
    kdeutils akonadi soprano polkit-qt strigi; \
    do yum-builddep $pkg; done

[edit] KOffice

Warning
Fedora 12 (and less) still ship with KOffice 1.6. yum-builddep will install dependencies for the KDE 3 version.

yum-builddep koffice-suite

[edit] Documentation

It generally requires the following tools installed:

yum install doxygen graphviz qt-doc

[edit] Module prerequisites

To install prerequisites just run

yum-builddep module-name

Where "module-name" is the name of the module you want to install

-Some of the required packages for building KDE4 on Fedora 7 or higher:
+== Toolchain ==
-<code bash>
+Install basic toolchain:
-yum install clucene-core-devel libxml-devel libxslt-devel \
-dbus-devel boost-devel bzip2-devel openssl-devel alsa-lib-devel \
-redland-devel rasqal-devel raptor-devel hspell-devel aspell-devel \
-cups-devel xine-lib-devel avahi-devel gamin-devel OpenEXR-devel \
-enchant-devel jasper-devel ilmbase-devel pcre-devel gpgme-devel \
-libxklavier-devel glib-devel libusb-devel libsmbclient-devel \
-libxcb-devel NetworkManager-devel lm_sensors-devel libraw1394-devel \
-bluez-libs-devel gcc-c++ libXext-devel cmake make subversion giflib-devel \
-libpng-devel libXdamage-devel libXcomposite-devel libXrender-devel \
-fontconfig-devel libXft-devel libXcursor-devel libXfixes-devel \
-ruby-devel libXScrnSaver-devel libkdcraw-devel exiv2-devel \
-lcms-devel libtiff-devel sqlite-devel libxkbfile-devel \
-imlib2-devel patch gstreamer-plugins-base-devel gstreamer-devel \
-libical-devel

-Some additional packages are required for Fedora 9 or higher:
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
+</syntaxhighlight>
-<code bash>
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
-yum install libcapseo-devel libcaptury-devel
+yum install subversion cmake
-</code>
+</syntaxhighlight>
-Some optional packages for koffice support:
+Install the yum-utils package to get yum-builddep:
-<code bash>
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
-yum install qca2-devel gsl-devel freeglut-devel \
+yum install yum-utils
-GraphicsMagick-c++-devel GraphicsMagick-devel
+</syntaxhighlight>
-</code>
-akonadi uses mysql:
+On Fedora 16 [[../../kdesrc-build|kdesrc-build]] will complain about qmake being missing. It is located at /usr/bin/qmake-qt4. Simply create a symbolic for qmake:
-<code bash>
-yum install mysql-devel
-</code>
-This includes installation of D-Bus and CMake -- you can skip steps 5 and 6.
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+ln -s qmake-qt4 /usr/bin/qmake
+</syntaxhighlight>
+== Basic functional desktop ==
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+for pkg in kdelibs kde-baseapps kde-workspace \
+    kde-runtime akonadi soprano polkit-qt strigi; \
+    do yum-builddep $pkg; done
+</syntaxhighlight>
-DCH-10/15/07: Note - It may be simpler to spin RPMs. Note that you can edit the variables in /etc/rpm/macros.kde4 (which is provided by Rawhide kde-filesystem).
+== Full-optionals desktop ==
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+for pkg in kdeaccessibility kdeadmin kdeartwork \
+    kde-baseapps kde-workspace kde-runtime \
+    kdebindings kdeedu kdegames kdegraphics \

+    kdeutils akonadi soprano polkit-qt strigi; \

-The build stage then looks like:
+== KOffice ==
- (but in what directory?)
-%build
-mkdir -p %{_target_platform}
+{{Warning|Fedora 12 (and less) still ship with KOffice 1.6.<br/><br/>
+yum-builddep will install dependencies for the KDE 3 version.}}
-pushd %{_target_platform}
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+yum-builddep koffice-suite
+</syntaxhighlight>
-%{cmake_kde4} ..
+== Documentation ==
+It generally requires the following tools installed:
-popd
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+yum install doxygen graphviz qt-doc
-make %{?_smp_mflags} -C %{_target_platform}
+</syntaxhighlight>
-I have had better results with creating a kdesupport rpm which means that you should not install the soprano and strigi rpms. YMMV
-telsh: On a Fedora 8 System I had to install "qt4-devel" too to have qmake.
-{{TODO| Audit this and organize by module.
-}}
+== Module prerequisites ==
+To install prerequisites just run
+<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
+yum-builddep module-name
+</syntaxhighlight>
-Return to [[Getting_Started/Build/KDE4#HAL|building KDE 4]].
+Where "module-name" is the name of the module you want to install
