Description Dominik Kucher 2018-09-04 15:57:16 UTC 
I tried to install kopete, as soon as I create an account, the program crashes. I suspect that somewhere a Libary is missing the kopete can start. It does not work either on a freshly installed Fedora 27 or 28. On my original Fedora 15 now, Fedora 28 works perfectly and I synce the data, between the three computers. Already tried to install the kopete-18.04.3-3.fc28 version of koji, the same problem remains. Also in the system tray koji is not found.

[root@dk-desktop:~]$ rpm -qa | grep kopete

Comment 1 Dominik Kucher 2018-09-08 10:01:11 UTC 
after install qca-ossl, kopete works 

when you a add to your spec file 

Requires: qca-ossl 

kopete would works out-of-the-box on fresh installed systems, when anybody types "dnf/yum install kopete" in the terminal, and qca-ossl will be installed with kopete
Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2018-09-09 04:10:54 UTC 
Thanks for the excellent detective-work.

clean kopete.spec
Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2018-09-10 15:01:45 UTC 
Thanks, but the cosmetic/whitespace changes are not welcome, and the requires appears to be incorrect.

I think you want
Requires: qca-qt5-ossl
instead of
Requires: qca-ossl
which is the qt4-based plugin
Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2018-09-10 15:23:09 UTC 
My bad, I forgot that f28 (like f27) still ships kde4-based kopete, so my latter criticism is untrue here.
Comment 6 Dominik Kucher 2018-09-10 16:39:21 UTC 
the troubleshooting is: 

%if 0%{?fedora} < 29
Requires: qca-ossl
%else
Requires: qca-qt5-ossl
%endif
Comment 7 Dominik Kucher 2018-09-10 16:55:45 UTC 
my bad, i have seen you have change the build from kde4-based kopete to qt5

kopete 17.08.3
%{cmake_kde4}

kopete 18.04.3
%{cmake_kf5}

but I think it's better to switch to qt5 with Fedora 29 first

the troubeshooting is: 
REQUIRES
%if 0%{?fedora} < 29
Requires: qca-ossl
%else
Requires: qca-qt5-ossl
%endif

BUILD
%if 0%{?fedora} < 29
%{cmake_kde4} .. \
  -DMOZPLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR:PATH=%{_libdir}/mozilla/plugins \
  -DWITH_skype:BOOL=OFF \
  -DWITH_wlm:BOOL=OFF \
  %{?use_system_iris:-DUSE_SYSTEM_IRIS:BOOL=ON}
%else
%{cmake_kf5} .. \
  %{?!jingle:-DWITH_libjingle:BOOL=OFF} \
  -DWITH_wlm:BOOL=OFF
%endif
Comment 8 Dominik Kucher 2018-09-10 17:06:40 UTC 
I have now downloaded the RPMs from koji and installed on my system, seems to work, would be nice someday if all programs run on qt5 so kde4 can throw away

it is already experimented with qt5 and kde4 since f22 :-) 

[root@srv:~]$ rpm -qa | grep kopete
kopete-libs-18.04.3-4.fc28.x86_64
kopete-18.04.3-4.fc28.x86_64
Comment 9 Rex Dieter 2018-09-10 17:24:41 UTC 
Yes, f29 will ship kf5-based kopete.

Prior releases were originally based on the older kde4 version, and introducing an update changing that behavior during a release is discouraged by fedora updates policy.
