You have to install development packages for Qt, KDE, KDEPIM.

Thanks for the answer.
I'm using Debian, what would those packages specifically?

Sorry for my english, it's not my primary language.

In Kubuntu you have to install these packages:
kdelibs5-dev kdepim-dev qt4-dev xsltproc libboost-dev
I assume that in Debian they should have same name.

Actually, in Debian qt4-dev dont exist ;)

This solve the problem:

aptitude install kdelibs5-dev kdepim-dev xsltproc libboost-dev kdepimlibs5-dev qt4-dev-tools

This plasmoid is really super cool and the chosen colors (don't know if hard coded, default or KDE's ones) integrate really great in the tibanna theme :)

But! (there always is a but :þ )
Would it be possible to have an option not to display any event/calendar ? I mean, I just want the grid of numbers from 1st to 31st, no events under it.

Anyway, a really great tool, installed it super easily using the AUR :)

I seem to have had no errors compiling and installing on kubuntu 12.04 (after I installed kdepimlibs5-dev and libboost-dev).

How do I get it on my panel?

(Since the installer copied stuff into /usr/local I assume it should be in the panels add widgets, but I can't find it there.)

Hello! I love your plasmoid, good work!

But I would like to make it transparent under Oxygen Black, is it possible?

Report

Hi,
I think it is not possible because transparency is a property of the Plasma theme and I use Plasma widgets with default background.

But there are other widgets like the weather widget CWP that have transparent background. Is it possible to change the background of my widget installation to make it transparent?

I looked into the source code of CWP and the author paints the widget itself. I will try to look at it when I have time. Unfortunately I'm too busy now because i will have exams.

Please do not do this, i want a plasmoid with standard background.

I you want transparency, why using oxygen black...

Seems to have stopped working after a major update Sunday of several KDE libraries. Had to rebuild it, after which, it works as before.

Still loving it... :)

This plasmoid is exactly what I need, but it shows the wrong time. Im from Germany. Time is set to UTC, but it doesnt work with localtime, too.

Report

For me it works. I'm from Czech Republic so we are at the same time zone. I convert the date and time of events in this plasmoids to local time zone which is defined in system clock/date (i think). Maybe you have wrong time zone in your system settings but not in KDE settings.

I dont know what to do: In my rc.conf (im using archlinux) the settings are correct.

When I open an event, i have to set the timezone for each event and its then correct in the plasmoid, but after next start its wrong again.

I love it. Is there any way you can make it display a clock when it's placed on the panel instead of the icon it now shows? It would also be nice if it display the date when hovered over like the native panel clock. I like it better than the native panel clocks calendar when clicked, but need at least the time displayed on the panel.

Hello

I'm very interested in this plasmoid because is something pretty awesome that KDE lacks by default and it seems very simple and powerful at the same time.

But for some reason it fails to compile in my Kubuntu 12.04 on the laptop and on the desktop computer as well.

It throws an error in the "make" step which says:

"
[ 28%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/plasma_applet_google_calendar.dir/plasma_applet_google_calendar_automoc.o

"

Not being an expert and have been installed all kde "-dev" packages that I could think could be required it doesn't work. I'm lost.

If anyone could help me to compile this I would be very happy. Thanks
