Description Alexander Weber 2005-07-13 05:51:47 UTC

KCall is the telephony application of Kontact. It supports computer telephony
integration and at the same time integration into KDE's infrastructure. KCall
does this by using KDE's addressbook, which in turn can be a server-based
groupware addressbook.

Looks promising compared to kphone. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge kcall

very simple, surely erroneous, ebuild for kcall 0.5.2

This is a very simple ebuild for kcall Version 0.5.2. It works for me, but it
does not check prequisits or use-variables, so it is surely erroneous. Be
warned!

Comment 2 Karl Kaputnik 2005-10-25 08:55:37 UTC

Hi. 
 
I really appreciate your ebuild. Unfortunately it does not work for 
me, it shows the following error when I try it: 
 
emerge -pv kcall 
 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: 
 
Calculating dependencies - 
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "~kde-base/kdelibs-0.5.2". 
 
It seems that this has something to do with "inherit kde"... 
 
Cheers 
Kalli

Comment 3 Alexander Weber 2005-10-25 23:46:04 UTC

That sounds a bit strange to me... Do you have KDE installed? 

- If not: kde-libs has to be installed, so try 'emerge kdelibs'.

- If yes: are you able to install kdiff3? The kcall ebuild is nearly a 1-to-1
copy of it.

Comment 4 Karl Kaputnik 2005-10-26 08:53:52 UTC

Sorry, 
 
it seems the placement in "kde-base" was the reason for the error (which is not 
really obvious when reading the error message ;). I tried with kde-misc and now 
it works. 
Thanks!

installed and run successfully on amd64, but didn't really used it yet...

Comment 6 Gerold Strobel 2006-05-26 05:46:39 UTC

works for me too (on ~x86)

isn't there someone who 1. knows more about ebuild than me shmuck 2. could enhance this ebuild to cover the arts useflag and submit this ebuild to the general portage tree?

this app is just too cool not to be easily available to anyone

Comment 7 Bernd Steinhauser 2007-12-09 00:31:55 UTC

This app won't compile on current systems (or does it for others?).
Since it is no more under development (the QT3 version) this is maybe a WONTFIX.
kcall for KDE4 is being worked on, maybe you want to check that out when KDE4 has been released.

Indeed.
