Red Hat mulls Exchange competitor

Linux 3456 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Red Hat shed a little more light this week on how it intends to develop the directory and certificate management software it bought from America Online's Netscape division. But the company remains undecided as to whether it will commercialize some other assets it acquired in the deal, including messaging and collaboration software analysts say could form the basis of an open-source alternative to Microsoft Exchange Server

GARNOME 2.11.91

Linux 3456 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

GARNOME 2.11.91 has been released:

This release incorporates all of the GNOME 2.11.91 (aka. Beta 2) Desktop and Developer Platform, including glib/gtk+ 2.7.x and cairo.

This release has also had a little more polish to ensure that the build system builds and links against things in your GARNOME directory, and not your system one, hopefully cutting down on errors relating to pesky '.la files' that some distributions insist on shipping in their -devel packages.

That said -- and while this release has actually been more stringently tested than it's snapshot counterpart -- it's still likely to do things that are weird and unexpected ... maybe ... that's just the nature of the beast.

In particular, GCC 4.x users may want to take a look at:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309661 and then uncomment the CFLAGS workaround in your gar.conf.mk file before beginning your build.

KDE 3.5 Alpha

KDE 3.5 Alpha has been released:

KDE 3.5 Alpha source tarballs are up on the FTP servers. It's really Alpha quality so you don't will see a big announcement splash for it. One day before tagging KMail got completely messed up. When it was tagged two modules didn't compile at all. Several modules don't compile with --enable-final, Coolo ultimately gave up on fixing it. This week there were problems with the bandwidth of a server feeding the FTP mirrors so enough reasons for the long delay already. openSUSE going live with SUSE 10.0 Beta and people watching reactions for sure didn't speed things up either.
