The KDE Community is proud to announce the latest major updates to the KDE Applications delivering new features and fixes. This release marks massive improvements in the KDE PIM stack, giving much better performance and many new features. Kate streamlined the integration of Python plugins and added initial Vim-macro support and the games and educational applications bring a variety of new features.

The most advanced Linux graphical text editor Kate has again received work on code completion, this time introducing advanced matching code, handling abbreviation and partial matching in classes. For example, the new code would match a typed 'QualIdent' with 'QualifiedIdentifier'. Kate also gets initial Vim macro support. Best of all, these improvements also trickle through to KDevelop and other applications using the Kate technology.

Document viewer Okular now takes printer hardware margins into account, has audio and video support for epub, better search and can now handle more transformations including those from Exif image metadata. In the UML diagram tool Umbrello, associations can now be drawn with different layouts and Umbrello adds visual feedback if a widget is documented.

Privacy guard KGpg shows more information to users and KWalletManager, the tool to save your passwords, can now store them in GPG form. Konsole introduces a new feature: Ctrl-click to directly launch URLs in console output. It can now also list processes when warning about quit.

KWebKit adds the ability to automatically scale content to match desktop resolution. File manager Dolphin introduced a number of performance improvements in sorting and showing files, reducing memory usage and speeding things up. KRDC introduced automatic reconnecting in VNC and KDialog now provides access to 'detailedsorry' and 'detailederror' message boxes for more informative console scripts. Kopete updated its OTR plugin and the Jabber protocol has support for XEP-0264: File Transfer Thumbnails. Besides these features the main focus was on cleaning code up and fixing compile warnings.

메일, 달력, 개인 정보

KDE의 이메일, 달력, 기타 개인 정보를 관리하는 프로그램 모음인 KDE PIM에도 다양한 개선이 이뤄졌습니다.

Starting with email client KMail, there is now AdBlock support (when HTML is enabled) and improved scam detection support by extending shortened URLs. A new Akonadi Agent named FolderArchiveAgent allows users to archive read emails in specific folders and the GUI of the Send Later functionality has been cleaned up. KMail also benefits from improved Sieve filter support. Sieve allows for server-side filtering of emails and you can now create and modify the filters on the servers and convert existing KMail filters to server filters. KMail's mbox support has also been improved.

In other applications, several changes make work easier and more enjoyable. A new tool is introduced, the ContactThemeEditor, which allows for creating KAddressBook Grantlee themes for displaying contacts. The addressbook can now also show previews before printing data. KNotes has seen some serious work on solving bugs. Blogging tool Blogilo can now deal with translations and there are a wide variety of fixes and improvements all over the KDE PIM applications.

Benefiting all applications, the underlying KDE PIM data cache has seen much work on performance, stability and scalability, fixing support for PostgreSQL with the latest Qt 4.8.5. And there is a new command line tool, the calendarjanitor which can scan all calendar data for buggy incidences and adds a debug dialog for search. Some very special hugs go to Laurent Montel for the work he is doing on KDE PIM features!

시스템 요구 사양

In order to get the most out of these releases, we recommend to use a recent version of Qt, such as 4.8.4. This is necessary in order to assure a stable and performant experience, as some improvements made to KDE software have actually been done in the underlying Qt framework.

In order to make full use of the capabilities of KDE's software, we also recommend to use the latest graphics drivers for your system, as this can improve the user experience substantially, both in optional functionality, and in overall performance and stability.
