kde-builder

Easily build KDE components from its source repositories. Drop-in replacement for kdesrc-build. More information: https://kde-builder.kde.org/en/cmdline/supported-cmdline-params.html.

  • Initialize kde-builder:

kde-builder --initial-setup

  • Compile a KDE component and its dependencies from the source (use workspace to compile Plasma desktop):

kde-builder {{component_name1 component_name2 ...}}

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

kde-builder {{[-SD|--no-src --no-include-dependencies]}} {{component_name}}

  • Refresh the build directories before compiling:

kde-builder {{[-r|--refresh-build]}} {{component_name}}

  • Resume compilation from a specific dependency:

kde-builder {{[-f|--resume-from]}} {{dependency_component}} {{component_name}}

  • Run a component with a specified executable name:

kde-builder --run {{executable_name}}

  • Install login session:

kde-builder --install-login-session-only

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

kde-builder --no-stop-on-failure {{component_name}}
