Experimental Homebrew (http://brew.sh) tap for KDE Frameworks on Mac OS X.

To add the KDE Frameworks Tap to your homebrew installation:

brew tap haraldf/kf5

In order to build them, you first need an up to date Qt 5 with D-Bus support:

brew install d-bus
brew install qt5 --with-d-bus

Note: It seems that building Qt currently requires the whole Xcode to be installed Note: Read the D-Bus notes below if this is your first D-Bus installation.

Now, the fun begins. You can either install individual frameworks via

brew install haraldf/kf5/kf5-karchive

or you can install them all with the install.sh shell script provided in the tools directory:

`brew --prefix`/Library/Taps/haraldf/homebrew-kf5/tools/install.sh

Note that install.sh passes all parameters on to brew, so you can specify any brew parameter like --verbose also to install.sh

Uninstallation

To remove all KDE Frameworks 5 packages, run:

brew uninstall `brew list -1 | grep '^kf5-'`
rm -rf /Applications/KDE5

Installing HEAD

Currently, installing a formula installs the last released version from tarballs. However, not all frameworks and apps were released as tarballs yet. If you get an error saying is a head-only formula, that formula can only be installed from latest git and not from released packages. This can be done by passing --HEAD as parameter to brew.

Note that installing from latest git usually also means that all dependend packages are expected to come from latest git, so to prevent potential errors, you should uninstall all installed kf5 formulas (see chapter Uninstallation above) and install everything from git, for example by using the install.sh utility:

`brew --prefix`/Library/Taps/haraldf/homebrew-kf5/tools/install.sh --HEAD

D-Bus first time users

Follow the description in the D-Bus formula to set up the LaunchAgent. You might have to log out and log in again in order to make it work.

To verify D-Bus working with Qt:

echo $DBUS_LAUNCHD_SESSION_BUS_SOCKET
`brew --prefix`/opt/qt5/bin/qdbus

The first command should echo a valid path, e.g. /tmp/launch-NHyucl/unix_domain_listener. The second command should show the available services, at least org.freedesktop.DBus.
