So as the subject suggests, I've just landed the new categorization for<br>
systemsettings. Changes are all over the place, so if you just update single<br>
repositories, your systemsettings will be quite empty. If you're re-running<br>
kdesrc-build, you'll find a mess with old and new categorized intermixed (is<br>
"intermixed" a word? If not, we should make it one.)<br><br>
A clean installation will give you the desired results, but you can also just<br>
delete all categories before running kdesrc-build:<br><br>
rm `kf5-config --prefix`/share/kservices5/settings*<br><br>
(Use at your own risk.)<br><br>
After that, running kde-src build should get you into the new systemsettings<br>
state. If you notice anything strange, please refer to this thread and discuss<br>
your issues there: <a href="http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=285&t=121053&start=60" target="_blank">http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=285&t=121053&start=60</a><br><br>
If you notice that I did something wrong when turning the huge graphic into<br>
changes to .desktop files, please let me know, and I'll fix it.<br><br><br>
Special thanks goes to our interaction and visual designers who did the<br>
research for this new categorization. I personally think it's a big<br>
improvement.<br><br>
Going forward, there's a lot of work ahead, and this is only the beginning. We<br>
need to overhaul KCMs, we need to simplify settings, modernize UIs, and we<br>
will likely also introduce a new shell (which we can do gradually with the<br>
different view plugins in systemsettings). For an experiment, try the<br>
sebas/quick branch in systemsettings. This new categorization is only the<br>
first step, and we decided to push this into 5.0, since it's a user-visible<br>
change, and we can keep things rather more stable from here on out.<br><br>
