As you know, the new version of KDE productivity suite called KDE PIM 4.6 or Kontact2 (numbering also applies to other applications that comprise it, as KMail2, etc) came less than a month on a course that has been stable over a fraud from head to users who have ventured to try it, but there are many comments extolling its virtues. In any case, development continues and we already have with us his new version .

What does KDE PIM 4.6.1 ? To our knowledge, error correction : up to 38 fixed bugs, most related to the hateful outbursts of applications of this agenda for desktop personal information. And no one knows more in this regard because this new version has not been announced “officially” has been one of the developers who has a brief note on her blog.

Unless ye ye enthusiastic users report errors, not a good idea to use KDE PIM 4.6 in production environments , it is worth waiting for some distribution include it as default , indicating that it is ready (or almost). If you still can not wait to try it can for now only available source code to compile, but should not take long to get to channel development of the main distributions.

original author of the note concludes that it is not known if, how close to KDE 4.7 SC will be a new version, or the desktop is presented with the KDE PIM 4.6.1 .

It has just been published

SC KDE 4.6.1 , the first maintenance update to the current branch of the desktop environment that comes as standard increasing stability and fixing bugs improved translations .

461 KDE SC 4.6.1, fixing bugs

codenamed ‘Helga’ was presented the first “junior version” of SC KDE 4.6, with improvements translations and many bug fixes in the applications and desktop components generally as can be read on the official release announcement.

Plasma, PowerDevil (the renewed energy manager), KHTML, Konsole, Dolphin, Okular, KGpg, Ark., they are the main players in what is referred bugfixes, with special mention Kopete , the KDE application for excellence as a multi-protocol instant messaging is concerned and he felt a bit neglected lately.

final SC KDE 4.6.1 is a recommended update for all users of the desktop , especially those who are in KDE 4.6.0 SC.

However, lack the promised new version of KDE Pim , the productivity suite consists of Kontact, KMail, KAddressBook, Akregator … which apparently is not ready, so it continues use of its “general release” 4.4.10.

Some of the systems that can already SC upgrade to KDE 4.6.1 are:

  • Arch Linux: update

    • Fedora

  • 14: by the Rawhide development repository or KDE Packaging Project
  • FreeBSD: in the area51
  • Gentoo: KDE Snapshots

    • Kubuntu

  • 10.10: adding the ppa repository: kubuntu-ppa/backports
  • openSUSE 11.3: adding repositories or waiting 5 days for openSUSE 11.4

    • Wed Indeed, it is possible that the SC KDE 4.6.1 has been the reason for delaying the release “Goldmaster” openSUSE 11.4, of which nothing is known yet (it is expected yesterday .) Or maybe not.
