KDE 4.7.3 is in R47

caf4926 · November 4, 2011, 5:24pm

Just updated to 4.7.3
No problems noticed

Second that, upgrading to KDE 4.7.3 went very smoothly

keellambert · November 4, 2011, 9:57pm

Thanks for the info

Just updated and it looks very good, no problems,
its being used with Kernel 3.1.0-3-desktop + Tumbleweed + ati-driver-installer-11-9-x86.x86_64.run
screen distortion also gone with LibO_3.4.3_Linux_x86-64 when using column left/right buttons in Calc.

Same here in oS 11.4 64-bit kernel 2.6.37.6-0.7-desktop.

Issues with taskbar buttons not going away after closing program, or not resizing from 2 rows to 1 when the number of open apps lowers seem to be fixed. We’ll see…

+1 here works all fine too.

And the best for me is that plasma-addons is been splitted and now
the desktop can run without akonadi.

am i the only one not seeing the 4.7.3 repos for oS 12.1 – or did i loose
my mind recently and am looking in the wrong place? shouldn’t they be
under http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/47/ ?

or perhaps my mirror hasn’t been updated yet. everybody else sees KDE
4.7.3 / oS 12.1?

I doubt this will happen until after release

until one or two hours ago, my mirror showed 4.7.2 in K:D:F, so i thought
4.7.3 was supposed to show up in Release:/ first. there have been some
announcements on the oS-kde mailing list, re. which repo.s would receive
4.7.3 first, others remain frozen for a while. i didn’t follow this in
detail though.

now K:D:F shows 4.7.3, also for me, and i’m not puzzled anymore.

Does that mean no more 30+ akonadi processes in my userspace? Great!

caf4926 · November 5, 2011, 7:53pm

Wasn’t the advice not to use Factory
They shifted Factory to focus on 12.2

[the following is NOT a recommendation! don’t do this, or something
similar, unless you’re prepared to throw away your installation!]

yes, i know, but so far they haven’t shifted very much, and i’m playing
around with my fresh install of oS 12.1, using K:D:F for openSUSE factory,
while i’m actually running 12.1.

it’s still downloading, and i’m aware that i’m asking (or rather begging)
for trouble. but i didn’t expect 12.1 to work as exceptionally well as it
does: no problems whatsoever, neither with systemd, nor the kernel, nor
the nuveau driver i’m using for the first time instead of nvidia. (i don’t
have 3D games, but everything i need works great with nuveau, including
video & flash.)

i still have an up-to-date instance of 11.4 on a different HDD, with my
important data rsynced both ways, so if the worst happens, i.e., KDE
explodes and i can’t zypper-dup back to OSS, i’m losing a few hours
reinstalling 12.1 – but not in a rush, since 11.4 will remain alive for a
while.

Did you get LibO_3.4.3_Linux_x86_64 from a openSUSe repo for 11.4? I got the
vanilla version working from LO website but only find 3.4.2 in repos.

Thanks

Thanks: thats the version I downloaded from LibreOffice. I have had very
little trouble with it on both 11.4 and 12.1.

just now i see that KDE:/Distro:/Factory for openSUSE 12.1
(http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_12.1/)
has switched to KDE 4.7.3. i’ve been using K:D:F: for openSUSE factory
untilo now (on my 12.1 install), and fortunately this didn’t blow up in my
face. switching to the proper KDF repo now.
