###############################################################################
General notes for the 2.1.1 release of the KVIrc IRC client
###############################################################################
- Installation
The installation instructions are in the INSTALL file.
Other documentation can be found in the doc subdirectory.
- New features
This release is mainly a bugfix one. You can check out the
changes in the ChangeLog file.
- KDE Support
The KDE support is implemented only to a certain degree.
We hope to provide a better KDE support in version 3.0.0
To take advantage of the KDE libraries you have to add --with-kde-support
to the configure commandline.
Give it a try :)
- Reporting problems
You are encouraged to "mess" with all the KVIrc options and features,
and to report bugs and misbehaviours to the author.
Anyway , before reporting a bug , ask yourself if it can be caused
by some other part of your system: KVIrc uses many external libraries
and (as all programs) relies on a correct system behaviour.
Make sure that the libraries you use are the correct ones (!!!).
- Contents of a good bug report:
- A gdb backtrace in case of a segfault.
The more gdb info you send , the biggest is the possibility
for me to find the problem and maybe a solution.
- A detailed description (read : procedure) to reproduce the bug
Obviously if possible...
- All informations on your system that you think that may be
related to KVIrc and to the problem itself.
To enable the gdb debugging you must compile kvirc with
the --with-debug-symbols configure option.
Have fun :)
