Daisy dock non-compatible with kde 4.6(Solved)

[kiraitachi]

Hi, I updated to kde 4.6 and my daisy dock that came in the repos and i had installed said it wasn't compatible no more...so I looked in daisy website and the ppa repos to add the key..

https://launchpad.net/~samrog131/+archive/ppa

So I added the key but the version of the daisy dock is not 0.0.4.25 that is the one that I need.

So i went to search a bit more and found

http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3113420

But it wasn't the thing that I was looking for...so I downloaded the package from a tar.gz...

And to install it says..

To install this plasmoid check if you have installed the needed header files (kdelibs-dev and kdebase-workspace-dev),
unpack the archive, go to its directory and execute the install.sh script from a shell.

Alternatively you can go to the /applet directory and run the following commands from a shell:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`
make
sudo make install
kbuildsycoca4

After that done, the plasmoid should show up in the add widgets dialog.
If not, from a shell you can try to execute:

kquitapp plasma-desktop
plasma-desktop

What can I say i tried everything to install it and Im totally lost...

Can someone make a quick-help-guide to install this?? Thanks ^^

Daisy dock non-compatible with kde 4.6

Hi, I updated to kde 4.6 and my daisy dock that came in the repos and i had installed said it wasn't compatible no more..

The standard repository package is build against the KDE 4.5 ( > Topic: Plasma, plasmoids and short how to recover)

I looked in daisy website and the ppa repos to add the key..

Everything ?
An old link list >FAQ: Installing from source

Without knowing your output, it is hard to know what is the problem.

Do you have (looking an old daisy 0.0.4.23 package for the Lucid)
- build-essential ?
- cmake ?
- kdebase-workspace-dev ?
- libx11-dev

Re: Daisy dock non-compatible with kde 4.6

Im really sorry I didn't gave a good output rog131.

I'll explain myself, I added the ppa you made, but couldn't get it to work, already know how to use ppa's have large exp in Kubuntu and everything, and now how to install from source (at least I think I do.), but the tar.gz is giving me a headache.

I'll try Yuuki ppa cause ppa are usually more easy to work with.

By that you mean that I should add a ppa for Natty Kde 4.6 right?? because the repos I have are from 4.5 (correct me if my guess is wrong) ^^.

Will give some feedback after done with yuuki if it doesn't work I will try to install from source daisy.

Thanks Samrog131.

Cheers Kira.

Thanks so much for the source installation guide will try right now with that now that I saw how you did it and will say if it works for me because last time I tried I just got confused with build and I don't know what else stuff XD.

Thanks Ubuntuku
