| Summary | 0000676: Owncloud/Nextcloud desktop client | ||||
| Description | Owncloud ver. 8.x works fine on my OS/2 server at home. What I really miss an updated Owncloud client. The one we have: http://ecsoft2.org/owncloud-client is out of date, difficult to install (doesn't play with the RPM QT environment) and, what is worst, I was never able to make it work. If you should find some time to look at it, I think it would be a valuable addition for OS/2: https://github.com/owncloud/client https://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/latest/building.html#generic-build-instructions Just for documentation, a fork of Owncloud exists, named Nextcloud. Currently, the two softwares did not really diverge, and the clients are interoperable: https://github.com/nextcloud/client | ||||

Despite the build instructions for owncloud mentioning BUILD_WITH_QT4=ON - the latest source appears to need Qt5 |
|
|
Would it be possible to build an older version? Latest versions include just updates for sharing management via GUI, the core function - syncing files - did not change... |
|
|
possibly - it would be a matter of finding out when they stopped supporting qt4 - for some reason, they don't seem to have archives of the older source releases, so it would be a matter of checking out different git versions... |
|
|
OK, according to https://owncloud.org/changelog/desktop-client/ v2.3.3 is when: Stopped maintaining Qt 4 buildability; I found https://github.com/owncloud/client/archive/v2.3.2.tar.gz |
|
|
ok i got qtkeychain compiling using odin. Will try look at owncloud 2.3.2 later in the week |
|
|
in https://github.com/owncloud/client/blob/1.3/CMakeLists.txt there are the following lines: find_package(Qt4 4.6.0 COMPONENTS QtCore QtGui QtXml QtNetwork QtTest REQUIRED ) ... that in https://github.com/owncloud/client/blob/1.4/CMakeLists.txt become: find_package(Qt4 4.7.0 COMPONENTS QtCore QtGui QtXml QtNetwork QtTest QtWebkit REQUIRED ) ... The above lines are commented in versions from 1.5 up to 2.1 and removed starting from version 2.2. Link to 2.1 client sources: https://github.com/owncloud/client/archive/v2.1.1.zip |

I will try look at this with Qt5 at some point, I now run my own Nextcloud server :) |
