Experimental Homebrew (http://brew.sh) tap for KDE Frameworks on macOS.
To add the KDE Frameworks Tap to your homebrew installation:
brew tap kde-mac/kdeIn order to build them, you first need to do one manuall step that setup all things in order to work-around brew sandbox limitations
"$(brew --repo kde-mac/kde)/tools/do-caveats.sh"Note: It seems that building Qt currently requires the whole Xcode to be installed
Note: Webkit for Qt is installed by separate package called qt-webkit if you want use kdevelop or kdewebkit
Now, the fun begins. You can either install individual frameworks via
brew install kde-mac/kde/kf5-karchiveor you can install them all with the install.sh shell script provided in the tools directory:
"$(brew --repo kde-mac/kde)/tools/install.sh"Note that install.sh passes all parameters on to brew, so you can specify any brew parameter like --verbose also to install.sh
Uninstallation
To remove all KDE Frameworks 5 packages, run:
"$(brew --repo kde-mac/kde)/tools/uninstall.sh"Installing HEAD
Currently, installing a formula installs the last released version from tarballs. However, not all frameworks and apps were released as tarballs yet. If you get an error saying is a head-only formula, that formula can only be installed from latest git and not from released packages. This can be done by passing --HEAD as parameter to brew.
Note that installing from latest git usually also means that all dependend packages are expected to come from latest git, so to prevent potential errors, you should uninstall all installed kf5 formulas (see chapter Uninstallation above) and install everything from git, for example by using the install.sh utility:
"$(brew --repo kde-mac/kde)/tools/install.sh" --HEAD
