#26982: Suggesting a patch for kdelibs4 -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: mk@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: kdelibs4 -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Hi I have a suggestion for a new patch to kdelibs4. During building of KDE4 packages one often sees messages like this: {{{ ###################################################### # Programs will not start until you run the command # 'sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Preferences/KDE' # replacing $USER with your username. ###################################################### }}} In KDE3 it has been the same with .kde, which droves me quite insane back then when I tried to get kmymoney up and running. Brad Giesbrecht found a way how to work around it, which was then implemented in our portfiles for kmymoney related ports. Back then I also filed a bug at [https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233892 KDE's bug tracker]. Very recently I got a response and it seems this bug could be fixed now, making these "sudo chown"'s unnecessary - I HOPE at least. So, if you want to give it a try, consider the attached patch. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/26982> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
