Packaging Information for Calligra Suite
----------------------------------------
We recommend building several binary packages from the Calligra source.
Splitting Calligra into packages:
* gives users a better choice of which components they have
installed;
* allows users to install just the applications without unnecessary
dependencies;
* helps to reduce packaging conflicts for users with non-standard
package selections.
Table Of Contents
-----------------
1. Recommended cmake flags
2. Calligra plugins
3. Calligra libraries
4. IMPORTANT On using CPU vector capabilities in Calligra Libs
5. Okular plugins
5.1. Runtime dependency of the Okular ODP plugin
5.2. Support for PPT, PPTX and more runtime dependency
5.3. Support for DOC, DOCX, WPD and more runtime dependency
6. Adding unmaintained applications/modules
1. Recommended cmake flags
==========================
For alpha and beta packages, please build with debug output enabled, but for
production packages the -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-DKDE_NO_DEBUG_OUTPUT" is recommended.
A significant performance increase will be the result.
All modules may not be ready for production release.
It is recommended to specify -DRELEASE_BUILD=true to exclude these modules.
(If you want these packages to be included anyway, specify -DRELEASE_BUILD=false.)
NOTE: If RELEASE_BUILD is not set, CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is considered.
If it is set to Release, RelWithDebInfo or MinSizeRel, the modules are also excluded.
2. Calligra plugins
===================
Calligra applications can use plugins, placed in plugins/ subdirectory.
Some of them are very special and/or have extra dependencies so should
be packaged separately.
Suggested Name Details
------------------------------------------------------------------------
calligra-semanticitems Description: Calligra semantic item plugins
Contents:
calligra_semanticitem_contact.so
calligra_semanticitem_contact.desktop
calligra_semanticitem_event.so
calligra_semanticitem_event.desktop
calligra_semanticitem_location.so
calligra_semanticitem_location.desktop
Translation File:
calligra_semanticitem_contact.mo
calligra_semanticitem_contact.mo
calligra_semanticitem_location.mo
Dependencies:
libkdepimlibs (kabc, kcalcore, akonadi)
libmarblewidget-qt5 or marble
(provides libmarblewidget)
If Calligra is build with support for RDF enabled, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to
separate the semantic item plugins coming from "plugins/semanticitems" into
their own package. That package should not be an automatic dependency on any
other Calligra package, but only installed explicitely by the user. Reason are
the external dependencies with these plugins, especially kdepimlibs.
So if e.g. a user just installs the Braindump package, this should not pull in all
the things that KDEPIM/Akonadi pulls in.
3. Calligra libraries
=====================
Calligra share common functionality within libraries, placed in libs/
subdirectory. Calligra libraries should be placed in a single package,
separate from Calligra applications. Below is the list of the libraries.
Name Conditional compilation flag Globally used in Calligra? Public API
(headers installed)
(default: NO) (default: YES) (default: YES)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
flake
kokross NO
kopageapp
koplugin NO
kotext
komain
koodf
kordf Words/Author
pigment
kowidgets
4. IMPORTANT On using CPU vector capabilities in Calligra Libs
========================================================================
IN BRIEF: 1) Intall Vc library [1] and don't forget to activate
PACKAGERS_BUILD=ON option when building a package.
2) Vc libary should be present on the building system only,
it need not be installed on all the client systems.
Pigment can make use of the vector capabilities of the
user's CPU. To make it possible Vc library [1] should be present in
the host system. This is a static library and fully included into the
final Pigment binary, so it is not necessary to have it
installed in the client system.
The code generation is generally controlled by two factors: the
presence of the Vc library and a special cmake option
'PACKAGERS_BUILD'. Consider three cases:
1) Vc library is not present. PACKAGERS_BUILD=<don't care>.
The calligra is build with default compiller options. The resulting
binary is non-optimized and portable among different CPU
architectures.
2) Vc library is present. PACKAGERS_BUILD=OFF (default).
All the calligra binaries are optimized for the host CPU. This is the
most efficient type of build of Calligra. But be careful, because such
binaries are not portable among different CPU architectures! Using
this build for packages distributed to many users will most probably
result in SIGILL crashes on the client system. Use this option for
private builds only.
3) Vc library is present. PACKAGERS_BUILD=ON.
This option disables CPU optimizations for the most of Calligra, but
gnerates several versions of the code for its hottest parts. The
specific implementation of the code is chosen on the fly when Calligra
starts. This version is a bit slower than 2) but much faster than 1)
and is *portable* among all the CPU architectures. Use this type of
build for building distributable packages.

5. Okular plugins
=================
5.1. Runtime dependency of the Okular ODP plugin
------------------------------------------------
OKULAR_GENERATOR_ODP, the ODP plugin for Okular, in extras/okularodpgenerator,
has a runtime dependency on the Stage engine, PART_STAGE.
5.2. Support for PPT, PPTX and more runtime dependency
------------------------------------------------------
The Okular ODP plugin also supports the formats PPT and PPTX, if the respective
filters FILTER_PPT_TO_ODP and FILTER_PPTX_TO_ODP are built, by the products
OKULAR_GENERATOR_PPT and OKULAR_GENERATOR_PPTX.
In that case the files
* libokularGenerator_{powerpoint,pptx}_calligra.desktop
* okular{Powerpoint,Pptx}_calligra.desktop
* okularApplication_{powerpoint,pptx}_calligra.desktop
will be installed from the filters/stage/{powerpoint,pptx}.
So with those desktop files and the Okular ODP plugin installed there is a
runtime dependency on the Stage engine and the respective filters.
5.3. Support for DOC, DOCX, WPD and more runtime dependency
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Okular ODT plugin also supports the formats DOC, DOCX, RTF and WPD, if the
respective filters FILTER_DOC_TO_ODT, FILTER_DOCX_TO_ODT, FILTER_RTF_TO_ODT
and FILTER_WORDPERFECT_TO_ODT are built, by the products OKULAR_GENERATOR_DOC,
OKULAR_GENERATOR_DOCX, OKULAR_GENERATOR_RTF and OKULAR_GENERATOR_WORDPERFECT.
In that case the files
* libokularGenerator_{doc,docx,rtf,wpd}_calligra.desktop
* okular{Doc,Doxx,Rtf,Wpd}_calligra.desktop
* okularApplication_{doc,docx,rtf,wpd}_calligra.desktop
will be installed from the filters/word/{msword-odf,docx/import,rtf/import,wordperfect/import}.
So with those desktop files and the Okular ODT plugin installed there is a
runtime dependency on the respective filters.
6. Adding unmaintained applications/modules
===========================================
A few applications and modules do not have maintainers. So there is noone
to handle bugs experienced by users or discuss new features/improvements.
Still those applications & modules are usable for certain needs. If you want
to provide the users of your packages also with those unmaintained applications
and modules, you will need to create a custom patch to the file CalligraProducts.cmake
and remove the respective "UNMAINTAINED" tags from the product definitions.
When doing so, please state the unmaintained state in the package description,
so the users are aware about the lack of support at the current time.
