Kontact Touch/Maemo5

Installation og opdatering

Maemo 5 (fx Nokia N900)

Installation

Der er en enkeltkliks-installationsfil i Kontact Mobiles arkiv. Du skal blot klikke på det link i din N900 browser for at tilføje de nødvendige arkiver.

For at verificere de downloadede pakker i dette arkiv skal du importere Intevations fildistributions-nøgle til apt:

gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys EC70B1B8
gpg --export EC70B1B8 | apt-key add -

Den anbefalede måde at installere Kontact Mobile på N900 er at pbne en terminal og køren

root
apt-get update
apt-get install kdepim-mobile

efter at havee tilføjet test-arkivet (sørg for at have en god og overkommelig adgavg til internettet, når du gør dette).

For at få adgang til din enhed som root, se [1]

Du kan finde yderligere instruktioner om, hvordan man installerer Kontact Mobiles forskellige arkiver på N900 i denne README

Til testformål skal du altid bruge afsnittet TESTING. Brug ikke de andre afsnit. Vi prøver at opdatere testafsnittet en gang om ugen.

Opdatering

Brug kommandolinjen til opdatering. (I øjeblikket virker opdatering ikke via N900's programhåndtering; vi tror, at den har nogle subtile problemer.)

Make sure to have the package rootsh installed, to be able to get administrator rights. Use the application X Terminal or a remote shell connection and enter the following to do the update

root
apt-get update
apt-get install kdepim-mobile
apt-get upgrade

(Technical background: 'apt-get upgrade' would not install new packages that kdepim-mobile might need. Only doing 'install kdepim-mobile' used to fail with some package sets because the dependencies were not tight enough. So it is better to do both 'install kdepim-mobile' and 'upgrade'.)

Note that you have to reboot the N900 or manually restart several services like akonadiserver in order to profit from changes in these underlying services. If you are testing, rebooting the phone before your next tests is strongly recommended.

Stop all Kontact Mobile related processes

We have included a small script that stops and shuts down all processes that might cost you resources even after you quit any KDE mobile application. Just open a console and, to be sure there are no resource eaters running, run

kdepim-shutdown

Alternatively you can restart your phone.

Deinstallation

If installation happened only using the hildon application manager, you should be able to uninstall the same way.

When apt-get was used manually, you might have selected some additional packages for which you need apt-get to remove them again. Typically this will need

apt-get remove kdepim-mobile

You could find the following helpful to remove all the KDE related stuff.

apt-get remove libkdecore5 kdelibs5-data kdebase-runtime-data
apt-get autoremove

Check what is installed by using

dpkg -l | grep kde

. Everything that has an "ii" in the beginning of the line still is installed. Another attempt to see what is already installed from a KDE SC 4.x is

dpkg -l | grep -e "^.i.*4:4"

.

(Pay attention that other installations might use the KDE components, like libkok is used by freoffice.)

Clear the configuration

If you want to start over or remove the configuration of the KDE components completely, you need to deal with three places. First make sure that no kdepim related application is running anymore! Here are a number of commands to move the old files into a new backup directory 'dot.kde-20100728'.

cd
d=dot.kde-20100728
mkdir $d $d/dot.config 
mv .config/akonadi $d/dot.config
mkdir -p $d/dot.local/share
mv .local/share/akonadi $d/dot.local/share
mv .kde $d

Also, some resources (like unsent mails) can be found at ~/.local/share/local-mail, ~/.local/share/contacts, ~/.local/share/notes and ~/.local/share/.local-mail.directory .

There is one step that you might have to do after moving away (or deleting) the .kde directory. Some packages create a preset kdewallet.kwl file for the 'user', which you need to recreate. The script doing so usually can be rightfully called so by the user:

/var/lib/dpkg/info/kdebase-runtime.postinst

It basically does:

mkdir -p /home/user/.kde/share/apps/kwallet
cp /usr/share/kde4/apps/kwallet/kdewallet.kwl /home/user/.kde/share/apps/kwallet

Language

If you want to test a localized version, issue

root
apt-get update
apt-get install kde-l10n-de
apt-get upgrade

The above snippet will install the German (-de) translation. Remove the "-de" for English, and substitute a language code for any other language.

Get encryption working

There is a touch version of kleopatra, if the package is not installed by the dependencies, install it. You can use it to import your certificates or you just use Gnupg like you would on other GNU systems on the command line.

You might need to check the permissions and the owner on the .gnupg folder, it seems that there are some conditions where this folder belongs to root. For crypto to work as a user, the user will need to be able to write the files in the folder.

Alternatively: Assuming you have all your keys together on your computer, you can find them most likely in ~/.gnupg. Please copy this folder to your N900, by simply connecting it via USB with your computer and copying the folder (Note: you might need to change some settings to be able to see hidden files. In Dolphin this would be Alt + . ). Now disconnect your N900.

If you already have a .gnupg folder on your phone, consider making a backup or deleting it before you do next steps.

Close all Kontact mobile applications. Open X Terminal on the N900. If you copied the .gnupg to the root folder of your MemoryCard on your N900 (Default Name: 'MyDocs') the following commands in X Terminal will do the job for you:

mv MyDocs/.gnupg ~/.gnupg
chmod 700 ~/.gnupg

Now you should be able to read and write signed and encrypted messages.

General Hints

• If an application hangs you can press ctl(sym) + backspace (upper left and upper right button) simultaneously to get back to the application overview.
• To enter special symbols like < > or | you can push the arrow symbol in the upper left corner and then the ctl(sym) to get a symbol table.
• To make a screenshot, Press Ctrl + Shift + P. The screenshot(s) will be saved in /home/user/MyDocs/.images .
