Summary | A KShutdown version compiled using KDE 4 libraries | A KShutdown version compiled using KDE Frameworks 5 libraries | A KShutdown version compiled without KDE 4 libraries (Qt only, for Xfce, GNOME, Windows, etc.)
Additional Features | Better visual and functional integration with KDE, better User Interface elements and standard dialog windows, global and local keyboard shortcuts configuration, customizable notifications (e.g. sounds), improved localization, a more reliable system tray/notification icon (KF5 only). | None (just plain Qt)

## KDE Build @ Linux

### Minimal Requirements

1. KDE 4.7+
2. Qt 4.8+ or Qt 5.x

### Compilation & Installation

1. Additional requirements: installed `"kdelibs-dev"` package, CMake, and Gettext Utilities
2. To compile and install KShutdown run: `./Setup-kde4.sh`
3. To change the installation directory (prefix) run: `./Setup-kde4.sh "/your/prefix/dir"`
4. Clang support (an alternative C++ compiler):
   - `export CXX=/usr/bin/clang++`
   - `export CXXFLAGS=-march=i686` (in case of Illegal Instruction errors on some hardware)
   - Go to step 2.

### Compilation & Installation (alternative method; for geeks and nerds only)

BUILDTYPE can be `Release` or `Debug`. You can change the installation directory (prefix) by setting the `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` environment variable. To display default prefix for KDE applications, run `kde4-config --prefix`.

1. Create output directory: `mkdir build && cd build`
2. Generate Makefiles: `cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=BUILDTYPE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr/local" ..`
3. Compile: `make`
4. Make coffee
5. Install: `make install`

## Qt Build @ Linux

Note: Some functions may be unavailable in this build. See Qt Build table for more info.

### Minimal Requirements

1. Qt 4.8+ or Qt 5.x (KDE libraries are not required)

### Compilation & Installation

1. To compile KShutdown run: `./Setup-qt4.sh`
2. Installation is not required
3. Clang support (an alternative C++ compiler):
   1. `cd src; qmake -spec /usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/unsupported/linux-clang/`
   2. `make`

### Using CMake instead of QMake (experimental, Patch #4)

1. `mkdir build-qt5.tmp` (use separated "build-qt5.tmp" directory to avoid mess in source tree)
2. `cd build-qt5.tmp`
3. `cmake -DKS_PURE_QT=true -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..`
4. `make && ./src/kshutdown-qt`

### Using an alternate Qt version (Qt 5.x example)

1. `cd src`
2. `/usr/lib/$YOUR_VERSION-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmake`
3. `make`

## Qt Build @ Windows

Note: You can download a binary (already compiled) KShutdown version for Windows.

### Minimal Requirements (for compilation)

1. Qt 4.8.x (`qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw*.exe`, minGW, LGPL version)

1. When asked about MinGW (Minimalist GNU for Windows) click download link and unpack archive into `C:\mingw32`
2. Continue Qt installation

2. Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS)
3. Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 or compatible (including Wine)

### Compilation & Installation

- To compile and install KShutdown run: `Setup-qt4.bat` (this will rebuild both portable and installable version)
- To quick compile and test:
  1. Launch "Command Prompt" (`cmd.exe`)
  2. `cd your-kshutdown-source-dir\src`
  3. Run `c:\qt\<your-qt-version>\bin\qtvars.bat` (it should print Setting up a MinGW/Qt only environment...)
  4. Run `make && release\kshutdown-qt.exe`
  5. Right-click `kshutdown.nsi` and select Compile NSIS Script to build and test installer
- Experimental: To compile/test KShutdown under Wine/Linux run: `./Setup-wine.sh` or `wineconsole tools/test-wine.bat`

## Qt Build @ Haiku

### Compilation

1. Download and install Qt for Haiku
2. Download and unpack KShutdown source
3. Open terminal with KShutdown source: `cd src`
4. Change the default C++ compiler to GCC 4: `setgcc gcc4`
5. Create Makefiles: `qmake`
6. Build "kshutdown-qt" binary: `make`

## Common Compilation Errors

### cmake

#### CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.6/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:72

    CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.6/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:72 (MESSAGE):
    ERROR: cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake not found in
    ...;/usr/lib/kde4/share/kde4/apps

Install "kdelibs-dev" (sometimes called kdelibs5-dev) packages for your KDE version.

#### CMake Error at (...) Phonon library or includes NOT found!

This may happen after Ubuntu upgrade even if required Phonon files are already installed. [Solution]

#### make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libknotifyconfig.so.4.xx', needed by `src/kshutdown'. Stop.

This may happen after KDE upgrade. Run `./Setup-kde4.sh` to refresh Makefiles.

#### CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
QT_QT_INCLUDE_DIR (...)

This may happen if both Qt 4 and 5 qmake is installed. Try to uninstall `qt5-qmake` package.

### Setup

#### "pushd: not found" error

Try to run `./Setup-kde4.sh` and `cd build.tmp; sudo make install` instead of `sudo sh Setup-kde4.sh`

## Issues/FAQ

### Linux: Hibernate/Suspend does not work

If your Linux distribution supports systemd then try to install KShutdown 3.2+; otherwise install "upower" package.

As a workaround you can try to create a custom action with a `systemctl` command.

### Linux: Turn Off Computer/Restart Computer does not work

If your Linux distribution supports systemd then try to install KShutdown 3.2+; otherwise install "consolekit" package.

### Linux: "KShutdown is already running" message

If no main window (and no system tray icon) is visible, kill "kshutdown" process and try to run it again.

This may be caused by a buggy system tray implementation. You can disable it in KShutdown settings.

### Linux: Various system tray icon issues

Depending on desktop environment, KShutdown may sometimes fail to display the system tray icon correctly.

### Windows XP: No system tray icon

Sometimes the system tray icon may disappear randomly. Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc, end `kshutdown.exe` process, and restart KShutdown.

### KShutdown 1.0.x

Some configuration and command line options in KShutdown 2.x+ may be not fully compatible with the old KShutdown 1.0.x.
