Tickets for KDE software show stopper

kdelibs' XML translator meinproc4 crashes

One of the biggest show stoppers is the spuriously occurring meinproc4 crash. There are ongoing discussions about it on KDE-DEVEL and - even more up to date - on KDE-MAC. That is why KDE software documentation gets scarcely built these on MacPorts, but one can alternatively access everything online on KDE's documentation site.

261509 meinproc4: crash with segfault on Mac OS X

#29503, #30162, #37620, #41326, #41575, #41576 - some MacPorts tickets related to meinproc4

Major layout issues on OSX

296810 KMultiTabBar: Does not correctly handle Mac font sizes
332335 QML components: Links fade to pitch black when mouse hovering over them (sounds similar to a KBounce bug found by Ian*)
333429 KBounce: Black on black messages in Apple OS X make KBounce unplayable
296845 Font rendering broken in OS X

*) <Ian>The KBounce black-on-black case is due to QPainter::CompositionMode_DestinationIn failing when using native Mac graphics in Qt. It can be fixed by putting -graphicssystem raster on the command-line when starting KBounce. This also fixes graphics glitches in the KPat game and two other KDE Games bugs, in KBounce and Palapeli. But it does not fix problem 332335 in KDevelop and Plasma::ToolButton (QML library) yet. I think we may need to install qt4-mac with raster graphics as default. There are potentially over 100 places in KDE apps and libraries affected by the problem with QPainter::CompositionMode_DestinationIn. I have posted on kde-devel and kde-mac about this and received help from Thomas Lübking of KDE. References:

Bug report wizard failing

In a post to KDE-DEVEL it is described what happens when the user tries to call the bug report wizard in KDE applications. This usually simply opens a browser accessing bugs.kde.org, but it fails on MacPorts even if a web browser is configured properly in the system configuration of KDE software. In the latter case this leads to an endless respawning of browser windows, but this can also happen on Linux, see be-shell's ticket 21 on SourceForge.
