Ars Technica: Deep Inside KDE 3.2

Posted by michael on from the plumbing-the-depths dept.

binner writes "Ars Technica features an article 'Deep inside the K Desktop Environment 3.2' written by Datschge and Henrique Pinto. After introducing KDE and the project's structure the authors present some new applications of KDE 3.2. After that they explain the key KDE technologies KParts, DCOP, KIO, Kiosk and KXMLGUI and give examples for code reusage and an overview of efforts to integrate non-KDE applications. For developers Umbrello, Cervisia and Valgrind with KCachegrind are introduced and of course KDevelop 3.0. An examination of licenses precedes the positive conclusion."

    I sent this to their webmaster:

    I find it somewhat humorous that on this page:
    http://www.microsoft.com/seminar/events/security.m spx

    the photo you use is that of a Macintosh PowerBook G4 15" (with the Apple logo on the back of the screen Photoshop-ed out), on a page about security summits and programs. While I don't want to get into a pissing contest about which OS is more secure, it's mildly humorous to find a Mac being used to advertise Microsoft's security, even if it is subtle.

    Respectfully,
    Andy Ringsmuth



    I'll try and keep an eye on it and see if they decide to change the photo.....

    emerge -C kde does not remove KDE.

    emerge -C kde removes the KDE metapackage, which is a no-content package.

    emerge -C kde does not remove the dependencies of the KDE metapackage.

    On top of all that, emerge kde is not neccessary to enjoy KDE.
