kde 2.1 beta-2



Hi All,

No announcment yet - but KDE 2.1 beta 2 is out and it's on
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/unstable/

Currently, RPM's are available for Mandrake 7.2 and for Caldera 2.4. Redhat
7.0 RPM's will be out soon as well as RPM's for Redhat 6.2 (and thats
includes Redhat Alpha and Sparc) which I'm compiling right now (and fixing a
small bug with cookies support) together with bero from Redhat Germany -
those RPM's will probably be out by monday, along with the official
announcment. DEB pacakages are available already (I think for Woody and SID,
but I'm not a debian user, so I don't know - shame on me).

I'll try to set-up an Israeli mirror for the RPM's - anyone who is in charge
of Linux IL servers can give me user/pass to upload them?

For those who do not know what has been changed from KDE 2.0.1 to KDE 2.1
beta 2 - a lot has been improved and added - can be found here:
http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelog2_0to2_1.html - one more thing -
lots of javascripts error were fixed also.

For the Israeli user - well, not much has been changed. Some hebrew web
pages look better (example which I checked right now - bananot.com,
layla.co.il). I'm working to solve the problem with Visa CAL web site to let
the users get their info from their site (seems like an SSL problem), as
well as the problems with reverse numbers in Logical hebrew (Lars promised
to fixed it before KDE 2.1 final).

There are some fixes to print hebrew pages (logical and visual) in the
qt-copy on the KDE CVS, but I haven't tested them (well, it's 04:14AM right
now, both my machines are compiling and I'm using some crappy machine which
comes with windows and it's not mine to write this email - so I cannot set
up a printer right now) and KDE wasn't compiled for them. People who want -
can grab the latest qt from the qt-copy dir in the KDE CVS and try it.. This
is STILL work in progress..

Well, I'll leave the machine to make the RPM's (and nadge bero about
kde-1-compat next week).

Hetz
