The qucs-qt4 source is not very current: it is dated 03/03/08. In contrast, the date on qucs-0.0.15 is 24/04/09. Is migration to qt4 active? (In reply to comment #0) I get the exact same results. I can't open files and I get an error about the sidebar menu file. however I sugest Mask qucs-0.0.15_p20100115 ~ instead of ~M until it works as qucs-0.0.15 does and make qucs-0.0.15 available again. (In reply to comment #0) I have same bugs on amd64/ Source used for qucs-0.0.15_p20100115.ebuild isn't full. Why?..! Now qt-3.3.8 in portage tree. Full source may be found http://sourceforge.net/projects/qucs/files/qucs/0.0.15/qucs-0.0.15.tar.gz/download . qucs-0.0.15.tar.gz from sourceforge.net compile without any warnings and work perfectly on amd64/qt-3.3.8/qt-core-4.5.3-r2, as non-portage software. qucs-0.0.15_p20100115.ebuild is useless. Markos, Samuli, Since you guys seem to be the ones at the origin of qucs-0.0.15_p20100115, could you please have a look at this? Thanks in advance, Denis. I would like to shortly notice that I've added the ebuild of working (Qt3) qucs into kde-sunset overlay, and I would appreciate masking the portage version with a message acknowledging that and directing the user to the overlay. I would suggest removing the snapshot from tree per bug 300043, Comment #5 and let people use the kde-sunset version... There is no file in the current "nightly snapshot" of qucs-qt4 newer than March 2008. For all practical purposes the qt4 port is indeed dead. Any news on the topic? Maybe it's time to mask the ebuild for removal? treecleaners: please remove qucs, with a mask message telling users to install the qt3 version from kde-sunset if they really need it (In reply to comment #0) > Start qucs from command line and get these messages: > > Instead of seeing qucs window, a directory search window appears with > the title: "Sidebar library file".

Use the Qt3 version from kde-sunset overlay. Will be restored to Portage soon as upstream Qt4 version is ready, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it... last commit 2008. |
Start qucs from command line and get these messages: ~ $ qucs (1730) findLibraryInternal: plugins should not have a 'lib' prefix: "libkfilemodule.so" (1730) KPluginLoader::load: The plugin "libkfilemodule" doesn't contain a kde_plugin_verification_data structure Instead of seeing qucs window, a directory search window appears with the title: "Sidebar library file". I cannot find this so click cancel. Warning popup says: "Sidebar won't have any library as you haven't selected any". Click OK. Now get qucs window (but title says "Qucs 0.1.0" ???). Try opening existing schematic that worked with qucs-0.0.15, but get error: "Unknown file format". Also, help functionality is missing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run qucs 2. try loading existing file 3. try using Help menu 4. try using Project menu 5. try using Tools menu Actual Results: See description. The only thing that appears to be working is the drawing ("painting") tool. Functions under Project and Tools menus do not work. Expected Results: A working application! Suggest putting qucs-0.0.15 back into portage because that version worked very well. Mask qucs-0.0.15_p20100115 ~M until it has same functionality. as qucs-0.0.15 has.
