Request MX-23: KDE CDEmu

#1 Post by Dearth »

Hi,

will it be possible to add the latest version (0.8.1) of a small ISO mounting app KDE CDEmu to MX-23 repo?

Links:
https://store.kde.org/p/998461/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kde-cdemu-manager/

Unfortunately there is no .deb file published on the project's website.

It's nice it's been recent updated kde_cdemu-0.8.1.tar.zst

Even without a .deb you can simply build it from source. Gave you the instruction to do it.

How to install:
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kf5-config --prefix` ..
make
make install (as root)

Even if you never build from source before. Anytime is a good time to learn.

Download the file kde_cdemu-0.8.1.tar.zst

Unzip it(uncompress it)

Follow the instruction to the T. You only need two tools. cmake and make and you're good to go.

Given that this is clearly not happening I once again attempted manual build and it kept failing.... so I started rooting around in it's git and happily came upon this.

https://github.com/cdemu/cdemu/issues/23

Which not only updated a bunch of other packages but got the required software installed but then it failed to load so i found this

Basically you add the deb-multimedia repo, install the dependencies and then the four required packages. Then you can either enable the daemon to autostart or start it separately each time you need to use the program. And you might need to reinstall vhba-dkms manually.
