In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing kcal, a KDE calendar application, on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:
Before installing kcal, we need to install the required dependencies. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S git cmake extra-cmake-modules kpackage qt5-tools qt5-base qt5-quickcontrols2 qt5-graphicaleffects qt5-svg
This command will install Git, CMake, and other required dependencies.
Now, we need to clone the kcal repository from Github using Git. Run the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/kcal-app/kcal.git
This command will clone the repository and create a directory named "kcal" in your current working directory.
Change the directory to the "kcal" directory by running the following command:
cd kcal
Next, create a "build" directory and change the directory to the newly created directory using the following commands:
mkdir build
cd build
Now, we can build and install kcal using CMake. To do this, run the following commands:
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
This command will build, compile, and install kcal on your system.
Finally, launch kcal by running the following command in your terminal:
kcal
This command will launch kcal, and you can start using it to manage your calendar and events.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed kcal on EndeavourOS Latest using Git and CMake. Now you can use this KDE application to manage your calendar and events.
