Preface

CAUTION!

Be aware that beta testing is potentially dangerous to your installation. Don't install beta versions on production systems. If you are aware of the risks and that's ok for you: Keep on. Your help is appreciated. Nevertheless, especially for beta versions goes: This software comes with no warranty at all!

Before starting beta testing it's a good idea to make a backup of your configuration, stored in
```
~/.kde/share/config/konversationrc
```
and your application data, stored in
```
~/.kde/share/apps/konversation
```

If you found a bug or have a feature request, let us know by filing it in the KDE Bug Tracker.

Or get in touch with us on IRC or the mailing list.

Manual checkout and update

To install the latest Konversation code for KDE Platform v4 from Git you first need to clone the repository. For read-only public access, use the following:

 git clone git://anongit.kde.org/konversation --branch 1.5

If on the other hand you have a KDE developer account, use this instead to be able to push your changes to the repository later:

 git clone git@git.kde.org:konversation --branch 1.5

After having cloned the repository, go on like this:

 cd konversation
 mkdir build
 cd build
 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull ..
 make
 sudo make install

If you already did the above, just do the following whenever you want to update your checkout and installation: cd konversation; git pull; cd build; make; sudo make install See the links at the bottom of this page for more information on working with Git.
