kdesrc-build

Easily build KDE components from its source repositories. More information: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kdesrc-build/kdesrc-build/index.html.

  • Initialize kdesrc-build:

kdesrc-build --initial-setup

  • Compile a KDE component and its dependencies from source:

kdesrc-build {{component_name}}

  • Compile a component without updating its local code and without compiling its dependencies:

kdesrc-build --no-src --no-include-dependencies {{component_name}}

  • Refresh the build directories before compiling:

kdesrc-build --refresh-build {{component_name}}

  • Resume compilation from a specific dependency:

kdesrc-build --resume-from={{dependency_component}} {{component_name}}

  • Run a component with a specified executable name:

kdesrc-build --run --exec {{executable_name}} {{component_name}}

  • Build all configured components:

kdesrc-build

  • Use system libraries in place of a component if it fails to build:

kdesrc-build --no-stop-on-failure {{component_name}}
