This is all crazy... however I think the underlying problem is that the XML database describing the KDE projects is corrupt or malformed somehow, because you shouldn't see error messages like "Module konsole is apparently XML-based, but contains no active modules to build!", as that is definitely a valid module. I've just tried a run over here (which re-downloaded the XML file) and it seems to work OK. So please find your local XML database file (should be ~/kdesrc/kde_projects.xml unless you moved the source directory somewhere else) and remove it. If kdesrc-build still has problems please let me know. Also let me know if that works, so I can improve the error message in that case. The project.kde.org server is/was down, so it cannot download the projects.xml file. Thanks guys. As Mr. Feck has pointed out the server was down and as it is now working again I am able to build as expected. I didn't delete any local files - I just ran kdesrc-build after the server returned to service. Perhaps an error should be clearly shown to indicate that kdesrc-build is unable to contact the server... I agree that the error shown can be improved, reopening as a new bug. Git commit 8ad8eacadfcbff966e7a14151f297953ec7cc11d by Michael Pyne. Committed on 21/12/2012 at 04:29. Pushed by mpyne into branch 'master'. kde-projects: Improve error message somewhat. This improves the error message encountered with mal-formed XML in the kde-projects database, at least a little bit.

I cannot build kde with kdesrc-build due to http://projects.kde.org/kde_projects.xml being incomplete. The source code repositories are currently undergoing emergency maintenance which has led to the kde_projects.xml data generator giving invalid XML output. I'd recommend trying again tomorrow, or you can follow http://identi.ca/kdesysadmin to see what the current status is. |
