Note: kde-frameworks update is required for plasma 5.20. Can split the two commits into separate PRs if the plasma update ends up holding things up, but at the moment its the other way round.

@Thra11 this might be a noobie question, but how can I trigger building kde-frameworks and plasma? (on my machine that is)

@Thra11 this might be a noobie question, but how can I trigger building kde-frameworks and plasma? (on my machine that is)

That's a very good question. I think you can use the plasma5 and kdeFrameworks attributes to build all the packages in the sets, so either

nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A plasma5

or

nix build nixpkgs.plasma5

and either

nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A kdeFrameworks

or

nix build nixpkgs.kdeFrameworks

There's also a tool called nixpkgs-review which can help build things which have changed (so it would attempt to rebuild things which depend on plasma and kde frameworks in addition to the packages themselves) Not super familiar with how to use it, but I think you can do something like this:

nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"

Trying to understand the circle..

git clone git@github.com:Thra11/nixpkgs.git
cd nixpkgs
git checkout plasma-5-20

Remove everything related to "user-manager" from pkgs/desktop/plasma-5/default.nix!

export NIXPKGS="$(pwd)"
nix-build $NIXPKGS -A plasma5 -vvvvv 2>&1 | tee ../plasma5_build.log
cd ..

This seems to fix the circle: hamburger1984@b03aa6d

Basically: specify outputs in kglobalaccel.nix

Upgraded to 5.20.4 + adjusted some dependencies and patches. It builds now, @Thra11 please have a look and maybe include Thra11#3

Looks good so far, except of the sddm Breeze theme...

@eliasp just curious, how did you override your local system modules to get that to work? I was trying last night, but still pretty dumb when it comes to nix's workings. Do you just have to create overrides(/overlays?) for these like 8 packages, and it should work? Or do you have to do something more complicated within services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5...

@jdnixx I use
nixos-rebuild -I nixpkgs=/home/eliasp/code-repositories/public/nixos/nixpkgs build
to build from my local repository clone or
nixos-rebuild -I nixpkgs=/home/eliasp/code-repositories/public/nixos/nixpkgs switch
to build + switch.

The code changes look alright to me. I'll start building this tonight so I can test in the morning.

This is what I came up with too but I think that it is broken? (and already was) even with that. at least most of the binaries do not work.

I don't think that's what it's supposed to do but I'm not sure. 😄

@Kiwi You're right, the build passes on master, but the package is broken. There aren't any packages that depend on it; maybe we should just remove it.

I tried for a while to figure out how to fix them but did not succeed (yet). I might figure it out eventually. Between that and electron apps I've spent the last 10+ hours not getting anything to work. :(

I have marked all the updated packages which are broken with Qt < 5.15. However, this breaks a number of other packages which depend on KDE Frameworks, that are pinned to older versions of Qt. We need to investigate these failures, at least:

• calligra
• digikam
• digikam5
• i-score
• kdeApplications.konqueror
• kdeApplications.rocs
• kdevelop
• lxqt.lxqt-config
• trojita
• wacomtablet
• zanshin

I haven't investigated at all, so some of these may be marked broken already. For those, nothing else needs to be done.

In the meantime, I will start testing Plasma, too.

wacomtablet should have been fixed /updated to Qt 5.15 by #104660 (which may have been merged after the commit this PR is based on)

Besides the SDDM theme, I noticed that KWin compositing is broken. Also, the KPanel settings reverted to the default configuration.

There's something wrong with the panel and its effect on kwin... maximized windows don't take the panel into account anymore and just disappear behind the panel.
Not sure whether that's a problem on our side or upstream.

As soon as I can see this evaluate on CI, then we're good to go! 🚀
