Fedora KDE Special Interest Group
Mission
The KDE SIG (Special Interest Group) is a group of Fedora contributors that maintain KDE packages in Fedora. Their mission is to provide high-quality, usable KDE software packages to Fedora users and developers and to support one another in maintaining those packages.
Fedora KDE Spin
The Fedora KDE SIG has played an integral role in creating the Fedora 7 KDE-Live spin and is continuing this work for Fedora 8 and beyond:
For Fedora 8 and further, it will also be central in integrating KDE 4:
- KDE 4 Development Platform (Fedora 7 updates and Fedora 8)
- Releases/FeatureKDE4 (Fedora 9 and beyond, full KDE 4 desktop workspace)
Fedora 10 and further:
- Fedora KDE branding (Plasma, desktop, etc.)
- Features/KDE42 (Fedora 11)

Joining the SIG
Joining the KDE SIG is as simple as being part of Fedora and having a love for KDE. Once you are a contributor to Fedora, you can join the SIG by adding your name above and communicating with the rest of the team in the usual Fedora channels .
How you can help
If you have no idea how to help us with providing a good and qualitative excellent release of KDE in Fedora here are some proposals where we need help:
- Packagers: There are so many interesting packages that are not yet packaged for Fedora. Package it to improve the user experience.
- Reviewers: Only a few persons are doing the kde-related reviews. Help us reviewing so that more packages could be included.
- Testers: If you love KDE use the development version or the updates-testing repository and report bugs, bugs, bugs, request enhancements or features. We need your feedback to improve KDE.
- Bugs: Become a BugZapper and help us with kde-related bugs.
- Documentation writers: The documentation (esp. the DesktopUserGuide ) is GNOME-centered. Help us to provide an equivalent for KDE.
- Release Notes: The few people that are working on the new KDE-Spin are quite busy with development issues. If you want to help us in writing the release notes for the next version of Fedora we would give you all the info you need.
- Wiki: Maintain http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KDE and keep it updated with end user information.
- Artists: To provide a matching theme for nodoka-theme (GTK2 and also metacity)
IRC
Meetings
There will be informal KDE SIG meetings in the #fedora-meeting channel every
- Tuesday at 16:00 UTC (Tuesday 10:00am CST / 17:00 CET). Rex Dieter, Than Ngo, Lukáš Tinkl, Kevin Kofler
For more information about the past and upcoming meetings please see the meetings subpage: KDE/Meetings
IRC Channel
Besides the KDE SIG meetings there is also existing a freenode channel for developers and users of KDE in Fedora: #fedora-kde
Fedora Package Collection
Current Packages
Package Requests
The following is a list of KDE-centric packages people would like to see packaged up and maintained for Fedora:
Anything else should go to the general Fedora wishlist instead.
| Package Name | Brief Description | Spec file | Maintainers | Status |
| konserve | small backup application for KDE | konserve.spec | MarcelaMaslanova | waiting for review #361701 |
| keep | backup application for KDE | keep.spec | XavierLamien | Done review is coming |
| guidance | Administration tools | XavierLamien | Starting | |
| qtcurve | (KDE 3 version) | qtcurve.spec | SebastianVahl | |
| klearlook | A Clearlooks-like KDE style | klearlook.spec | SebastianVahl | |
| QBzr] | QT Frontend for the Bazaar revision control system | |||
| Kobby] | A KDE Collaborative editor | Note: Needs libqinfinity mentioned below | ||
| LibQInfinity] | Qt Bindings for libinfinity | Note: Needs libinfinity mentioned below | ||
| Libinfinity] | Library implementing the infinote protocol |
Best Practices
- For proper Requires:, consider using before the
%descriptionsection this code:
%{?_kde4_macros_api:Requires: kde4-macros(api) = %{_kde4_macros_api} }
- Here are some example
%buildand%installsections:
%build
mkdir -p %{_target_platform}
pushd %{_target_platform}
%{cmake_kde4} ..
popd
make %{?_smp_mflags} -C %{_target_platform}
%install
rm -rf %{buildroot}
mkdir %{buildroot}
make install DESTDIR=%{buildroot} -C %{_target_platform}
- In the
%filesyou can use at leas the following macros:
%{_kde4_appsdir}
%{_kde4_bindir}
%{_kde4_configdir}
%{_kde4_datadir}
%{_kde4_docdir}
%{_kde4_iconsdir}
%{_kde4_includedir}
%{_kde4_libdir}
