Logging the progress. ThenAs I said before, I'm restarting and restudying my previous work. 2023-08-07Some compilation errors were catched. 2023-08-18I didn't hit the goal of one package per week. It forces me to try 3 today. I need to generate all hashes upfront, creating an update script for this. 2023-08-29The upstream project provides flat SHA512 hashes for each tarball. It obviates the need of TOFUing them, and makes it easier to script this job. With that in mind, I have created a confusing Python script in the most quick and dirty way: speedrunning tutorials on The only other problem is how to convert these hashes into SRI format... 2023-08-31The updater script is working as expected, at least for tde.tqt3. 2023-09-03TDE provides some scripts that compile, build and install it to many Linux distros and FreeBSD. https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE 2023-09-05tde-cmake is a hard dependency of (at least) arts. However it tries to install things at CMAKE_ROOT, which is not encouraged by Nixpkgs. I tried to seek the nixpkgs codes, but very few of them worry about CMAKE_ROOT, and those who do are a bit obscure to me. 2023-10-07I will simply ignore its cmakelists installation script and use a setup-hook, as every normal Nixpkgs hacker. 2023-10-07tde-cmake should be installed way earlier, as second package. |
Thentqtinterface is the current gatekeeper. 2023-11-30A questionable patch was introduced, and now arts can be built! Unbfortunately, dbus-tqt does not find tqt. The patch was wrong after all. Time to contact the TDEvelopers! |

Trinity Desktop Environment is a fork of KDE 3.5, intended to be the logical continuation of 3.x series. Its aim is to feature a rich desktop environment for Unix-like operating systems with a primary goal of retaining a traditional, efficient and productive user interface.
This is a function that takes a TDE component and returns data suitable for a `mkDerivation` prototype. The idea is that the TDE components are grouped in a single machine-generated file, `sources.nix`; this function extracts the desired component from it.
Just a skeleton.
generate-tde-sources.nix.py is a Python script that parses the TDE mirror download page and throws to stdin a Nix expression in which we have the main info about the TDE sources, namely, - pname - version - group (as defined by TDE team) - hash (SRI-encoded SHA512) The script is usable, albeit primitive.
An experiment on automated generation.
Warning: it includes a very questionable patch that uses black magic to circumvent the bugs on pkg-config generation.

I will restart this in Museoa. |
