bvbfan Easy use of dd https://github.com/LinArcX/Kindd 🙂

Since it lacks the features that KaOS' own IsoWriter has (no option to verify checksum for example) and it basically is for creating bootable USB too, not much use to add. But it makes sense though to look at it for a rewrite of IsoWriter in QML.

    I'll always take an updated version. From a user perspective I don't see much difference so it's probably low impact.

      +1 for Strawberry. Amarok worthy successor.

      How about Qt5 XMPP client like PSi+? Ktp fell into stagnation.

      Or Kaidan.

        +1 For Kaidan, I just tried it, it's still primarily stuff, but it can at least chat.
        Still lack important feature like http transfers and server side chat history but i guess they would follow quickly.

        Can't comment about music players, there is too much, all dying after short period of time: amarok, juk, clementine, all of those i already forgot. Amarok was just fine, don't know how far dead is it or not but i would go / stay with it.

            0.3.2 or 0.4.0-rc? 0.4 on paper it looks better.

            Yes, Amarok was the best. According to me mysql and other strange ideas killed it.
            Amarok is slowly being ported, but will we ever see a new version?

                Kaidan 0.4.0 rc1 + qxmpp 1.0.0 are added (build repo).

                That really stopped 2-3 years ago, around 2015 it was actively ported by one dev, but you can now state it is dead for over 18 months.

                  Its a good idea, this app seems being worked upon (looked at commits), probably will be a good replacement.
                  My vote for using Strawberry as a maintained Qt5 musc player.

                    I found a new way to build Haskell: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack

                    It compiles into an own, dedicated location, which means all the packages from the Haskell package manager do not mix with the existing packages of KaOS. Another benefit is, that you do not need to build 1000 dependencies, as you would otherwise to get Haskell running. And it offers a couple of nice, additional tools.

                    This makes it also much easier to compile any other project that is itself based on Haskell.

                    Sorry @demm for the old post but I'm still trying to have a fresher version of nextcloud-client.
                    Could we integrate it on the Kaos official packages ?
                    It is a qt5 software, the one on kcp is older than 2 years...

                        demm because I use a non free French provider to store my files which uses Nextcloud. And because Dropbox is not tall enough.

                        I will ask to someone to help me to update it on KCP.
                        I have always the feeling that I’m boring people here with my questions...
                        ‘Still using Kaos for two years without any problems.
                        love it.

                          Default for KaOS is Seafile, still no answer what Nextcloud offers that Seafile does not (or my service for 10 years, Spideroak). Since there already quite a few of these kinds of applications in the repo, there has to be a compelling reason to add yet another. KaOS will always keep a limited amount of similar applications.

                            demm I know that you don't want too many similar applications, that's just Seafile is another one paid solution...
                            I'm compiling the KCP package by changing the packages source. Crossing fingers...

                              Seafile has free storage, plus can be used as self hosted server (afaik, exactly like Nextcloud).
                              Scratch the above, https://seacloud.cc/ is set close December 1 (I have used that free tier for about 5 years), no option to use any of their servers anymore, thus will be needed to make another file-syncing service the new default.
                              Maybe best to start a poll for what most users prefer?
