Hi,
I finally managed it to let cmake complete the configuration for compiling
today's latest git snapshot of Falkon's source code for a Falkon version
supporting KDE Plasma 6.
For that purpose I have installed Tuxedo OS in version 3, it is providing KDE
Plasma 6 as the only Desktop Environment as default.
Tuxedo OS is based on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS, and it is provided by a Germany
based computer company selling laptops and PC's with pre-installed Linux
distributions.

Having installed Tuxedo OS in version 3, I had to tweak some things in it,
like disabling or removing unnecessary daemons and expanding the size of its /
boot partition.
The original size of the /boot partition was 500 MB big and until then big
enough for several other Linux distributions I had been using so far, until I
installed Tuxedo OS as the 2nd Linux OS on my machine, but having installed
inside Tuxedo OS several linux-image packages from the Tuxedo repositories,
the /boot partition got too much filled with data, so that I could not
successfully install another, new linux-image package.
Due to this I expanded the size of the /boot partition to 4 GB using gparted,
and then I successfully could install the latest linux-image package.
Just lto et you know that if you consider to use Tuxedo OS in version 3 for
testing Falkon running in KDE Plasma 6.
I have a question regarding the cmake configuration process for compiling
Falkon. Its result currently is:
<Quote Beginning>
-- Configuring done (21.0s)
-- Generating done (1.8s)
<Quote End>
But want went wrong is this here:
<Quote Beginning>
-- The following OPTIONAL packages have not been found:
* PySide6 (required version >= 6.4.0), Python plugins
* Shiboken6 (required version >= 6.4.0), Python plugins
* Shiboken6Tools (required version >= 6.4.0), Python plugins
<Quote End>
cmake cannot find the respective *.cmake files of the three packages named
above.
But I had installed among other things these 3 Python related packages named
above using pip within a virtual environment for pip installations. I could
not find out how to download at least the necessary *.cmake files of these 3
packages above using pip.
Any idea how to solve this issue? Or can I savely ignore it?
Best regards,
Jens
