This section provides information about 'building Qt5, Kf5 and Krita3.
This section provides information about '''hard''' (required) and '''optional''' software packages needed to build Qt5, Kf5 and Krita3.


=== Dependencies ===
To build Qt5 and Kf5 follow the instructions in [[https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Building | Frameworks/Building]] on Techbase.
 
These are the deps for Qt5 and Kf5: the extra dependencies for Krita also need to be installed (but you probably have them already)

=== Qt 5 ===
Qt 5 (http://qt.io/) is the base of KDE software. Choose one of the following sections to get your Qt setup. If you build Qt with the intention to actually develop Qt patches then you should go for a full debug build. If you merely need Qt to develop KDE applications then you should go for the release with debug symbol version.
 
{{Note|<b>ArchLinux users</b>: qtwebkit and qtwebengine use Python to generate some files, but they use Python 2.x syntax. So you have to make ''python'' pointing to ''/usr/bin/python2'', to do that see the [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python#Python_2 Arch Wiki].}}
 
==== Qt5 full debug build ====
* PRO: full control and debugging capabilities
* CON: takes long to compile on the first time, might be an additional source of errors for beginners
 
To build all of qt5 execute:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qt5.git --branch 5.4
cd qt5
./init-repository
./configure -prefix $PWD/qtbase -opensource -confirm-license -nomake tests -nomake examples \
  -dbus -no-separate-debug-info -xcb -system-xcb -qpa xcb -no-gtkstyle -developer-build
make
</syntaxhighlight>
 
To update qt5 later:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
git pull
git submodule sync
git submodule update --recursive
</syntaxhighlight>
 
If you saw changes (i.e. qt5.git got updated since last time),
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
./configure [...same as above...]
make
echo $?    # you should make extra sure that 'make' didn't abort with an error, especially when using -j
</syntaxhighlight>
 
Experimental and not officially supported: if you don't have enough time and disk space for all of qt5, you could restrict yourself to separate checkouts of qtbase.git, qtsvg.git, qtx11extras.git, qtscript.git and qttools.git, this is enough to build frameworks/* (but not enough for plasma-framework).
 
==== Qt5 release with debug symbols build ====
* PRO: This build is the most ideal build when developing applications and tuning performance. It has the speed of a release build but with debug symbols which give you more information in for example kcachegrind with data collected through valgrind.
* CON: The Qt libraries will be quite a lot bigger due to the debug symbols.
 
To build all of qt5 execute:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qt5.git --branch 5.4
cd qt5
./init-repository
./configure -prefix $PWD/qtbase -opensource -confirm-license -nomake tests -nomake examples -dbus \
  -no-separate-debug-info -xcb -system-xcb -qpa xcb -no-gtkstyle -release -force-debug-info -reduce-relocations \
  -optimized-qmake
make
</syntaxhighlight>
 
==== Use packages from your distribution ====
* PRO: faster to get started, one source of errors less
* CON: usually doesn't have debug symbols. Great for developing applications and measuring performance. Not so great for tuning performance (you'd need debug symbols for that).
 
Note that the Qt version currently must be '''>= 5.4'''
 
1) openSUSE:
* 13.2: add the repository http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt54/openSUSE_13.2/
* install packages:
<pre  style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: normal;">
$ sudo zypper install libqt5-qttools libgypsy0 libqt5-creator libqt5-linguist libqt5-qtbase-common-devel libqt5-qtbase-debugsource libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtbase-doc libqt5-qtbase-examples libqt5-qtdeclarative-debugsource libqt5-qtdeclarative-devel libqt5-qtdeclarative-examples libqt5-qtdeclarative-tools libqt5-qtdoc libqt5-qtgraphicaleffects libqt5-qtimageformats libqt5-qtimageformats-debugsource libqt5-qtimageformats-devel libqt5-qtmultimedia-devel libqt5-qtmultimedia-examples libqt5-qtquick1-devel libqt5-qtquickcontrols libqt5-qtscript-devel libqt5-qtscript-examples libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-debugsource libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras-devel libqt5-qtxmlpatterns-devel libqt5-qtxmlpatterns-examples libQt5CLucene5 libQt5Concurrent-devel libQt5Concurrent5 libQt5Core-devel libQt5Core5 libQt5DBus-devel libQt5DBus5 libQt5Declarative5 libQt5Designer5 libQt5DesignerComponents5 libQt5Gui-devel libQt5Gui5 libQt5Help5 libQt5Multimedia5 libQt5Network-devel libQt5Network5 libQt5OpenGL-devel libQt5OpenGL5 libQt5Positioning5 libQt5PrintSupport-devel libQt5PrintSupport5 libQt5Script5 libQt5Sensors5 libQt5Sql-devel libQt5Sql5 libQt5Sql5-mysql libQt5Sql5-postgresql libQt5Sql5-sqlite libQt5Sql5-unixODBC libQt5Svg5 libQt5Test-devel libQt5Test5 libQt5WebKit5 libQt5WebKitWidgets5 libQt5Widgets-devel libQt5Widgets5 libQt5X11Extras5 libQt5Xml-devel libQt5Xml5 libQt5XmlPatterns5 libQtQuick5 libQt5WebKitWidgets-devel libqt5-qtbase-private-headers-devel
</pre>
(these might be too much packages but with those the KF5 build worked)
 
2) Debian
* For now, Qt >= 5.4 can only be found in experimental repository. If it's not already the case, add it to your sources list and update : 
<pre  style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: normal;">
$ echo 'deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian experimental main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
$ sudo apt-get update
 
$ sudo apt-get install -t experimental qtbase5-dev qtbase5-private-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev qtscript5-dev qttools5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev qttools5-dev-tools qtdeclarative5-dev
</pre>
 
3) Other distributions: yet to be documented.
 
=== Alternative: compile KF5 into Docker ===
You can use Docker to keep your main system clean and avoid to install a lot of packages.
 
Follow the instructions given at the follow repository: https://github.com/Mathux/docker-kdesrc-build
 
Hints for openSUSE to get started:
 
1) '''install'''
sudo zypper install docker
 
2) If the error message
<pre  style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: normal;">
FATA[0000] Post http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.16/images/create?fromImage=busybox%3Alatest: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: no such file or directory
</pre>
appears whenever trying to execute any docker command then you have to start:
sudo systemctl '''start docker'''
 
3) Add your user to the '''docker group'''
 
4) Proceed as described in the github project.
 
5) Beware of '''low disk space''' on your root partition (see http://blog.eye48.com/post/98551740424/when-docker-io-eats-up-your-disc-space)
 
= Build KDE Frameworks and its dependencies =
{{Note|For instructions on building and running Plasma 5, see [[Plasma/Building]].}}
== Git remote prefix ==
Let's setup a "kde:" prefix for git commands. Add the following text to your ~/.gitconfig:
<syntaxhighlight lang="ini">
[url "git://anongit.kde.org/"]
  insteadOf = kde:
[url "ssh://[email protected]/"]
  pushInsteadOf = kde:
</syntaxhighlight>
 
== Clone kdesrc-build ==
First you need kdesrc-build, it can be done with the following commands:
<pre>
mkdir -p extragear/utils
git clone kde:kdesrc-build extragear/utils/kdesrc-build
ln -s extragear/utils/kdesrc-build/kdesrc-build .
</pre>
 
== Download the configuration file ==
At this point,
# download http://www.davidfaure.fr/kde/kf5-qt5-kdesrc-buildrc into your source dir
# rename it to '''kdesrc-buildrc'''
You can use this command:
<pre>
wget "http://www.davidfaure.fr/kde/kf5-qt5-kdesrc-buildrc" -O "kdesrc-buildrc"
</pre>
== Adjust the paths ==
Take a look at those lines in the configuration file you've downloaded:
<pre>
  # note that the qtdir line is not needed and can be commented out
  #  when using distro installed Qt 5 packages
  qtdir /d/qt/5/kde/qtbase
  source-dir /d/kde/src/5
  build-dir /d/kde/build/5
  kdedir /d/kde/inst/kde_frameworks
</pre>
and adjust the paths the way you want.
* qtdir = Where Qt 5 is installed, or qtbase build dir if using uninstalled
* source-dir = where KDE Frameworks 5 sources should be downloaded
* build-dir = where KDE Frameworks 5 should be built
* kdedir = your KDE Frameworks 5 installation directory
 
Note: Append '''-std=c++11''' to the '''cxxflags''' in the '''kdesrc-buildrc'''. Otherwise, you'll be no able to build libdbusmenu-qt.
{{Note|The value of <tt>'''''kde-dir'''''/share</tt> must be included in the environment variable <tt>'''XDG_DATA_DIRS'''</tt> or otherwise the build will fail. kdesrc-build should handle this for you.}}
{{Note|The Qt dir must be included in the environment variable <tt>'''CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH'''</tt> otherwise kdesrc-build will fail to configure most modules.}}
 
== Run kdesrc-build ==
{{Note|Note that this script uses GIT and Bazaar to download the sources, so ensure you have both installed. }}
{{Note|Ensure that C++ compiler is g++. Building KDE with clang has linking errors.}}
You just have to run <code>./kdesrc-build</code> to build the KDE Frameworks.
It is the preferred way of building KDE Frameworks.
 
{{Note|kdesrc-build will only pick up the kdesrc-buildrc file you downloaded and edited above if it is in the same directory you run kdesrc-build from.  If you save it to ~/.kdesrc-buildrc, however, it will be used no matter where you run kdesrc-build from. }}
 
If you want you can also do the work by hand following the detailed instructions: [[Frameworks/Building/Details]].
 
Example for openSUSE 13.1 with pre-built Qt 5 packages installed via zypper:
# directory structure looks like this now:
# src/
#  extragear/
#    utils/
#      kde-srcbuild/
#  kdesrc-build [symlink to extragear/utils/kde-srcbuild/kdesrc-build]
#
$ cd <your kf5 src dir where kdesrc-build symlink is located>
$ export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/lib64/cmake/Qt5
$ ./kdesrc-build
 
=== Analyse and fix build errors ===
 
If kdesrc-build shows you red module names with messages like "Unable to configure plasma-mediacenter with CMake!" or "Unable to build kdepim!", you have to start troubleshooting:
* The latest build log is written to <pre>src/log/latest/<module-name>/</pre>
* In case of error there will be an '''error.log''' file with useful information. You will often see that there is only a build dependency missing.
 
== Use Kubuntu CI ==
[https://community.kde.org/Kubuntu/PPAs#Kubuntu_Continuous_Integration_.28CI.29 Kubuntu CI] (replaces Project Neon 5) provides packages of KDE Git master for KDE Frameworks and Plasma 5.  Install them on your Kubuntu system to work with KDE Git.
 
= Runtime setup =
To use your new KF5 install prefix (let's call it $KF5) :
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export KF5=<path to your intended frameworks install directory>
export QTDIR=<path to your qt5 install dir, or qtbase build dir if using uninstalled>
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$KF5/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/usr/share
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$KF5/etc/xdg:$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS:/etc/xdg
export PATH=$KF5/bin:$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=$KF5/lib/plugins:$KF5/lib64/plugins:$KF5/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins\
:$QTDIR/plugins:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH
#  (lib64 instead of lib, on OpenSUSE and similar)
export QML2_IMPORT_PATH=$KF5/lib/qml:$KF5/lib64/qml:$KF5/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qml:$QTDIR/qml
export QML_IMPORT_PATH=$QML2_IMPORT_PATH
export KDE_SESSION_VERSION=5
export KDE_FULL_SESSION=true
</syntaxhighlight>
 
Note that LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't set. You shouldn't set it, the builtin rpath works magic instead, and if you set it you'll have issues when running tools that use uninstalled libs while building frameworks (e.g. meinproc, kconfig_compiler...)
 
To use separate user settings for KF5:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export XDG_DATA_HOME=$HOME/.local5/share
export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config5
export XDG_CACHE_HOME=$HOME/.cache5
</syntaxhighlight>
 
To be able to compile other stuff on top of KF5:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$KF5:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
</syntaxhighlight>
 
To get more information out of qDebug statements (i.e. make it more like kDebug) :
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
export QT_MESSAGE_PATTERN='%{appname}(%{pid})/%{category} %{function}: %{message}'
</syntaxhighlight>
or even better, to get colors:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
c=`echo -e "\033"`
export QT_MESSAGE_PATTERN="%{appname}(%{pid})/(%{category}) ${c}[31m%{if-debug}${c}[34m%{endif}\
%{function}${c}[0m: %{message}"
unset c
</syntaxhighlight>
 
Don't bother with KDEDIR and KDEHOME etc.  this stuff isn't used anymore.
 
$ which ksnapshot
 
should show you now the location of the built version, ''not'' the one in the system path /usr/bin/ if you setup the paths correctly.
 
To '''run an application''', e.g. ksnapshot, you need a separate DBus session because the dbus server needs to have the right value of XDG_DATA_DIRS, in order to find $KF5/share/dbus-1/services for starting services (e.g. kded5). (Only needed when working under KDE4?). Kded5 is not needed for every feature but everytime when kioexec (which is used by KRun) is involved.
 
$ eval `dbus-launch` # no console output expected, (kdeinit5 is started automatically when needed)
$ ksnapshot
 
= Running unit tests =
Unit tests are ran from the build dir of each framework, you should first cd into it.
 
You need a separate DBus session because the dbus server needs to have the right value of XDG_DATA_DIRS, in order to find $KF5/share/dbus-1/services for starting services (e.g. kded5).
 
<pre>
eval `dbus-launch`
kdeinit5
make test
</pre>
 
Note: Regular apps will start kdeinit5 automatically. The reason it has to be started by hand when running unittests is some strange interaction with ctest.
 
Warning: never start a KDE 4 application in this separate DBus session, it would conflict with your running Plasma 4 desktop.
Note: KDE_FULL_SESSION=true is needed to make sure that the correct QPA will be loaded.
 
Many of the tests require an X server, and will pop up windows briefly.  An easy way to allow these tests to run without interfering with your normal X session is to do <pre>
xvfb-run -s '-screen 0 1024x768x24' make test
</pre>
(the -s argument tells Xvfb to set the first screen to be 1024x768 pixels, with a depth of 24; at least one test requires a depth greater than 8).  In this case, if you also ensure <tt>DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</tt> is not set, the tests should not find your existing D-Bus session, and instead launch a new D-Bus instance.
 
Note that the KWindowSystem tests require a NETWM-compatible window manager to be running.  One way to do this is to create a script to run such a window manager, followed by whatever is passed to it.  For example, if you have the window manager [http://awesome.naquadah.org/ awesome] installed, you could create a script called <tt>awesome-run</tt> as follows: <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
#!/bin/sh
awesome &
exec "$@"
</syntaxhighlight>
and then run the tests as <pre>
xvfb-run -s '-screen 0 1024x768x24' /path/to/awesome-run make test
</pre>
 
If you want to publish your test results, instead of "make test" run <pre>
make Experimental
</pre>
The test results will appear on http://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=&lt;projectname&gt;
 
= Troubleshooting =
 
== Compilation: how to quickly solve build problems ==
 
Situation:
 
One or more modules fail to build via kdesrcbuild (displayed in red font).
 
'''Steps to solve''' (in the given order):
 
1) Check KDE build server if the module is maybe currently broken: http://build.kde.org/view/FAILED/
 
For the next two steps we assume your kf5 development directory structure looks like this:
kf5
  `- build
  `- src
  `- usr
 
2) Delete '''usr''' and run kdesrcbuild again.
 
3) see [https://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Building#Analyse_and_fix_build_errors Analyse and fix build errors]
 
4) Delete '''build''' and '''usr'''. Run kdesrcbuild again.
 
5a) Ask on IRC or mailing list (see [https://community.kde.org/Getinvolved/development#Communicating_with_the_team Communicating with the team])
 
5b) Check if there are changes in the build instructions: see History of this wiki page.
 
6) Start over from scratch.
 
== Runtime: generic runtime problem ==
 
Try to delete ~/.cache5, ~/.config5, ~/.local5
 
(WARN: make sure not accidently delete your own config, the directories without the 5)
 
== Runtime: Segfault when a sound is about to play (e.g. for a message box) ==
(added: 2015-02-27)
 
Example of the problem: open kate, edit some file without saving, Ctrl+W to close, a message box is about to appear and the then segfault:
 
kate(9037)/default KNotificationManager::notify: Calling notify on "Sound"
Segmentation fault
 
This command can solve the problem:
 
sudo /usr/lib64/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins
 
See also:
* https://community.kde.org/Plasma/5.1_Errata
* https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=122996
 
Alternative: go to kf5/build/kdesupport/phonon/phonon-vlc/ and exec `make uninstall`
 
== Runtime: kded5 crashes because of some component ==
(added: 2015-Jan)
 
Situation:
kded5 is started but crashes because of some dependency. Stacktraces show for example `bluedevil` as possible cause.
 
Goal 1: disable the component to verify it as crash cause.
 
Steps:
 
1) locate bluedevil files using `locate bluedevil`, for example.
 
2) Among the files there is `dev/kf5/usr/share/kservices5/kded/bluedevil.desktop`. Remove it.
If it was the cause, kded should stop crashing
 
Goal 2: Remove bluedevil from kdesrcbuild until it gets fixed.
 
Steps:
 
1) Search through the dev/kf5/src/extragear/utils/kdesrc-build/*-build-include files to find the component. In this case, it was found in kf5-workspace-build-include.
 
2) Comment it out:
# module-set kf5-bluetooth-management
#    repository kde-projects
#    use-modules libbluedevil bluedevil
# end module-set
 
Further calls of `kdesrcbild` will not include the component.
 
== Runtime: Couldn't start kded5 (KDE4) ==
(added: 2014-Dec)
 
Situation: developing and executing KF5 apps under KDE 4.
 
Problem by example: error message on console when starting ksnapshot in KF5 environment
 
<pre  style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: normal;">
ksnapshot(26577)/default KSycocaPrivate::checkDatabase: Couldn't start kded5 from org.kde.kded5.service: QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown", "The name org.kde.kded5 was not provided by any .service files") , falling back to running kbuildsycoca5
</pre>
 
Solution (not verified yet): as said in the article, run this command before starting the app itself:
. setup-kf5-env      # (or as your script is called)
eval `dbus-launch`    # no output expected
ksnapshot            # no kded5 error message expected
 
== Runtime: Icon theme was changed (KDE4) ==
(added: 2014-Oct, verified: 2015-Feb)
 
Situation: developing and executing KF5 apps under KDE 4.
 
Problem: After working a bit with KF5 applications your regular KDE icon theme might be changed from oxygen to breeze.
 
Solution: see https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=25032: Open "Icons - KDE Control Module" and change the theme back to Oxygen.
 
== Get more help ==

Revision as of 12:20, 12 August 2015

This section provides information about 'building Qt5, Kf5 and Krita3.

To build Qt5 and Kf5 follow the instructions in [| Frameworks/Building] on Techbase.
