Package: kate
Version: 4:4.14.2-2
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

Hello Sune,

Why you are thinking this plugin is a "3rd party thing" ?
1. This plugin is part of kate and the project home page is on KDE!
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=148606
2. The sense of a plugin is that it is written by a "third party" and not by the main project. ;-)
Is there a simple and good description how to package such a software for Debian?
What's about the different versions for different CPU?
How it must be integrated into the existant way of installing kate in Debian?
Why all plugins are shipped within the kate package and this plugin must be shipped in an own package?

Why the author should not port it to QT5 when KDE will be QT5?

Sorry - that's not understandable for me.
As maintainer of the kate package you should be interested that kate has the best functionality that is possible.
This plugin is an quantum jump for editing C++ sources.
Best regards
Karsten
