Bug#799204: Kate C++ Helper Plugin

[Karsten Malcher <debian@home.decotrain.de>]

Package: kate
Version: 4:15.08.0-1
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

i want to suggest to add this really nice plugin to the kate package.
With this plugin you have extended functionality in developing C++ programs,
you only find in big development environments.

Just have a look at the description and screenshots on the homepage:
http://zaufi.github.io/kate-cpp-helper-plugin.html

You can find the KDE homepage here:
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=148606

Up to now there was the problem to get this plugin compiled.
But today i get support from the author and it is working now in Debian 8.2 (jessie).
The complete discussion can be found here:
https://github.com/zaufi/kate-cpp-helper-plugin/issues/24


Here a short description how to compile it successfull.

Install the following packages:

kdelibs5-dev
libclang-3.5-dev
libclang-common-3.5-dev
libclang1-3.5
xapian
libxapian22
libxapian-dev
libboost-all-dev
clang-3.5

(I can't say if all of them are needed)


Then you download and compile the sources with this commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/zaufi/kate-cpp-helper-plugin.git
$ cd kate-cpp-helper-plugin
$ git fetch
$ git checkout issue-23
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ make install


Currently i have not tested to install the files in the Debian directories i found in
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kate/plugins/


Regards
Karsten
