kubuntu wicd client kde install it

NOTE ON 11.04 NATTY you should be able to find now the package wicd-kde ^_^

Hi this is a tutorial to install wicd-qt on kubuntu 11.04, actually it’s a beta, AD USUAL THIS IS NOT FOR NOBS,please before learn linux then do “complicated stuff”

INSTALL NOWARDEV  DEBIAN PACKAGE FOR WICD-KDE

first install wicd daemon only with this:

NOTE IT WILL ASK YOU TO SET WHO CAN RUN WICD SO RUN THIS ON KONSOLE!

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends  wicd-daemon 

now , you can follow what i have done if you don’t trust of my package or just download and install my own debian package

CREATE YOUR OWN DEBIAN PACKAGE for wicd-kde

note i have used these dependencies on CMakeLists.txt :

SET(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS “kdebase-runtime (>= 4:4.4.5), kdelibs5(>= 4:4.4.5), libqt4-dbus (>= 4.5.0), libqtcore4 (>= 4.5.0), libqtgui4 (>= 4.5.0), wicd-daemon “)

here is working all fine but wicd-daemon install the gtk gui so… before to install your own package check inf you have done

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends  wicd-daemon 

now get the source here

you should install dependencies to compile typically build-essentials , cmake cpack kdelibs5-dev
right now i have no time to check them all, sudo apt-get build-dep package will install dependencies automatically remember it !

unpack somewhere , and modify the CMakeLists.txt
