Hi guys,
I had the very same problem as the author or this thread and managed to compile
the plugin myself and it's usable for me. I needed to do couple of unobvious
tweaks though, here they are (I apologize the info below is very rough, also
there probably is a better way to do at least some of these steps):
My kubuntu version is 15.10
1) download the code
https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/base/wacomtablet/repository/show?rev=kf5-port
append -b kf5-port flag to the git clone command
2) read readme and install all the -dev packages it mentions. Additionally the
cmake will complain about plenty of missing cmake files - locate them with
apt-file search file-it-complains-about.cmake
then install the package with
apt-get install package-found-in-previous-step
3) libxcb on my kubuntu is configured without xinput and even if you install
all the dependencies from the packages the kdewacom cmake will complain about
this. You'll need to recompile libxcb. Download it from here
http://xcb.freedesktop.org/dist/
(find the proper version, for my ubuntu it was version 1.11)
and compile with
./configure --enable-xinput --prefix=/usr
I needed to also download and compile xcb-proto because original ubuntu package
doesn't seem to have all python scripts needed
3) compile wacomtablet as the readme says, install it
4) I needed to modify file
/usr/share/kservices5/kded/wacomtablet.desktop
and modify X-KDE-Kded-phase=0 to 1. (see
http://askubuntu.com/questions/462158/kde-config-tablet-on-ubuntu where I found
this hint)
5) restart kded4
6) You should be able to see the tablet in system-settings now. My tablet
wasn't recognized even if it was listed in
/usr/share/wacomtablet/data/wacom_devicelist. I ended up just copying section
with my tablet (intuos5 m) to ~/.config/tabletdblocalrc. BTW I found a nice
tool /usr/bin/kde_wacom_tabletfinder with which you can edid such local tablet
database file.
