Sneak Peeks at openSUSE 11.2: KDE 4.3 Experience, with Lubos Lunak
openSUSE News has a look
at the upcoming 11.2 openSUSE release. It focuses on the KDE 4.3
experience in the release, and interviews KDE hacker Lubos
Lunak. "There were attempts at making Qt ports of Firefox in the
past, but as far as I know there has never been one that would be really
usable (and with the advances of WebKit and the fact that it's shipping
with Qt I don't see that happening in the future). The reason for why we
could achieve something in a few days that has been missing for years is
down to the fact that I aimed pretty low — this is not a port of
Firefox, but it's the same Gtk-based version of Firefox, with 'if running
in KDE, call this small helper app' code inserted in desktop-specific
places doing most of the job. Even with this approach I think Firefox now
integrates into KDE reasonably well."
