Bug ID: 481961
Summary: Build It guide is out of date
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: gl.ivanov...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I am trying to setup Kate development environment following Build It guide
(https://kate-editor.org/build-it/) and it ends up with errors.
The first one was:
> Please edit your config. Replace "kdedir" with "install-dir".
This one was trivial to solve.
Then there are warnings:
```
Warning: The include line defined in /home/gitpod/.config/kdesrc-buildrc:26
uses an old path with data/build-include.
The module-definitions files are now located in repo-metadata.
The configuration file is intended to only have this include line (please
manually edit your config):
include ${module-definitions-dir}/kf6-qt6.ksb
Alternatively, you can regenerate the config with --generate-config option.
Mapping this line to "include ${module-definitions-dir}/kf6-frameworks.ksb"
Warning: The include line defined in /home/gitpod/.config/kdesrc-buildrc:27

```
Previously I was able to setup environment and build Kate. It seems something
has changed on kdesrc-build side in the last few months.
The guide needs to be updated to be working again.
P.S. If you are interested, I've created a repo
(https://github.com/i-ky/kate-development-in-gitpod) to automate the setup in
Gitpod (https://www.gitpod.io) - a containerized cloud-based environment. But
the errors/warnings were the same when I was setting up Kate development
environment on a "regular" PC running Linux Mint.
