Re: [Enflame] K3b 0.12 is out!

[CoolChEEzE <coo...@gm...>]

here is a snippet from their 'requirements' page


/* paste */
#  KDE >=3D 3.2 - KDE is the great window manager, the powerful desktop,
the very powerful c++ library K3b is based on, and a lot of programs.
# QT >=3D 3.2 KDE 3.2 requires the QT library version 3.2, a
cross-platform GUI development toolkit. Since K3b is a threaded
application QT needs to be compiled with threading support enabled.
# cdrecord/mkisofs - Cdrecord creates home-burned CDs with a
CD-R/CD-RW recorder.
# dvd+rw-tools - The DVD+RW-Tools are used to burn and format DVD+R(W)
and DVD-R(W) media. For DVD+R Double Layer burning version >=3D
5.20.4.10.8 is required.

it looks as if though it might be tough to break it out from that...
and dang man.. i spent the last several days learning one language...
if at all possible id like to stick with it for a bit.... unless you
have a reason that i cant think of as to why we should switch gears...
i say we press on my friends :)
