= Agenda =

topics to discuss: 
gcc 4.3 and KDE 4 [1,2] 
development progress: the road to kde4 
extragear packaging 
recent bugs: 
/usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common and kdelibs3 - kdelibs-common package [3]

= Summary =

o gcc 4.3 and KDE 4: 
- according to upstream gcc 4.3 could miscompile kde4 and may produce unusable 
kde4 applications 
- we have to find out when gcc-4.3 is actuall hitting rawhide 
- after that is done we have to rebuild all packages to figure out the 
problems and fill bugs 

o development progress: the road to kde4: 
- only kdeadmin is left from the normal packages 
- kde-l10n will maybe finished by ThanNgo tomorrow 
- KevinKofler suggested to eventually drop most of kdelibs3-devel which isn't 
usefull anymore 
- review for extragear-plasma is still ongoing and will be updated to 3.97.0 
by SebastianVahl 
- it will also obsolete kdeaddons since most of the packages/functions are now 
in extragear-plasma 

o extragear packaging: 
- It would be good to package some modules from extragear which were in the 
base packages in KDE3: 
 - extragear-base (all of it, or all that works, it's Konqueror plugins) 
 - extragear-graphics: at least kiconedit and kcoloredit 
 - extragear-multimedia: at least kmid and kaudiocreator 
 - pim/ksig 
- if more than one app is in an extragear module it should be named like the 
module (e.g. extragear-multimedia) 
- packaging extragear modules won't get our primary attention. We should send 
a mail to fedora-devel-list with a list of the now missing apps from the base 
distribution and seek for maintainers who package them from extragear 

o /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common and kdelibs3: 
- kdelibs3 is now missing some things which are in kdelibs 
- we will prepare a kdelibs-common package (from kdelibs(4)) which is required 
by kdelibs3 and kdelibs 

o Open Discussion: 
- LiveCD: yelp is pulling in firefox (again) which should be fixed (in yelp or  
in system-config-date which is requireing yelp) 
- the current package list of the livecd:
