Announcement: New/updated in HaikuDepot (2025)

[johan]

I’ve just added a new native tool I made - TextWorker v0.9 beta, to HaikuDepot.

• Convert text to uppercase, lowercase, or title case (with Unicode support)
• Search and replace text
• Break lines using a custom delimiter, with or without keeping the delimiter
• Clean up whitespace and line breaks
• Remove empty or duplicate lines
• Sort lines (ascending/descending, case-sensitive or insensitive, by length)
• Add or remove prefixes/suffixes to/from each line
• Indent or unindent lines using tabs or spaces
• Open and save text files. Drag and drop, and Open with… is also supported.

It’s still in development, so comments and bug reports on anything from icons and layout to functionality and code quality is much appreciated on the issue tracker.

Translations on Polyglot are also welcome, I hope to release v1.0 soon. Catalan, Norwegian, German and Spanish (lat-am) are already available (thanks @humdinger and @Davidmp)

Krita 5.2.10, wasn’t able so far to add pyQt5 functionality (which does work for building the Qt6 version) due to some sip errors, other then that no major changes for Haiku.

Release note: Krita 5.2.10 Released! | Krita

EDIT: small addition and a rebuild has just been done, this enables new filters:

SeExpr Scripts

EDIT: small bugfix release has been done, in the meantime added a missing requirement for mlt.

Although it’s only now announced (I grabbed the tagged release from invent), the official announcement is now published: Krita 5.2.11 Released! | Krita

GT4 landed in haikuports, build has been done on buildmaster (64bit only), this has been a work where multiple people stepped in to help, so big thumbs up for those!

Don’t expect this to be fully functional at the moment, there are probably plenty of issues around to be fixed, but it gives us a start to investigate them.

At least a WIP GTK4 branch for Xournal++ has been proven fine enough to run some first tests, basic functionalities are fine so far.

Using libadwaita for one is still having issues (in the screeenshot Calculator is build using that):

Also just updated: Netbeans (bin) to 26 and PyCharm (community-bin) to 2025.1.3.

Kid3 3.9.7 updated:

ecode 0.7.2 updated (now can launch multiple windows):

GIMP 3.0.4

Scribus 1.6.4

Inkscape 1.4.2

Before filing issue on crashes (Inkscape crashed earlier too here), try the golden tip by @3dEyes

Remove this folders:

rm -rf /boot/system/non-packaged/data/mime
rm -rf /boot/home/config/non-packaged/data/mime

In the process, KDE’s gear 25.08 is being pushed to the haikuports repository, there could be some breakage in the process, can’t push a full bulk PR because of some dependencies that need to be resolved first.
I’ll try to tackle the breakage as soon as I can and will add an EDIT to this post once it’s finished.

Sorry for the inconvienience.

KDE gear 25.08 is out, several updates to existing ones and a few new applications/games are added.

CudaText 1.227.0.0 is out (upstream already at 1.227.0.1, but can’t keep up there), this is an update to 1.221.0.0.

[brunobastardi]

There is Scribus 1.7 to try!
Scribus 1.6.4 is still crashing on the same bugs as before!
1.7 will use new Qt library and may be better for HAIKU1?

[Begasus]

Not sure what the problem was again, but at least there were some trying to build/run(?) latest release. (a few of us tried)

[Begasus]

LMMS updated to 1.3.0~alpha (git checkout), been keeping me busy for a few days, but I think it’s at the level it was with previous version.
FLTK was dropped for the Zyn effects (issue is known upstream).
LV2 should be working (couldn’t really find anything to check this with), no UI for that (no support with suil with my attempts to make it work).

Krita 5.2.13 bugfix released on Haiku, read all about the update on

https://krita.org/en/posts/2025/krita-5.2.13-released/

Also with the fix from @3dEyes I’ve updated Geany to 2.1.0, with the fix it’s now able to write characters not possible before like a simple @ or # Big thanks to @3dEyes !

Kottan 1.0.0 was released yesterday and is already available on Haikuports (and therefore via pkgman / Haikudepot). Thanks to everyone that contributed!

The actual changes are not as spectacular as the version bump
More details here: Release First officially stable release :-) · andimachovec/Kottan · GitHub

Mixxx 2.5.3 now released for Haiku (32bit and 64bit), turn your system into a DJ station.

Maybe room for improvements, but for my checks it worked fine. Thanks to @TurBoss on IRC/matrix for handing the idea and helping allong with getting it done.

[Starcrasher]

Apparently locales have not been packaged.

[BlueSky]

The translation catalogs are included, but not all of them are working. Some of them are, including German (my native language), so I didn’t run into the problem myself. I forgot that I have to add the languages to the Makefile as well
There will be a maintenance release coming out in the next few days which fixes this, as well as the problem of the File/Open menu entry not being translated at all.

Thanks for reporting!

[Begasus]

Outstanding update on Iaito, due to some missers from my side this went wrong on previous version, once the issue was sorted out things got back on par.
radare2/r2dec_js/r2ghidra and Iaito all updated for 32bit and 64bit, on riscv64 Iaito fails to build due to an issue with llvm12. Enjoy

[BlueSky]

A new Kottan release 1.0.1 hit the packaging system today. It’s a maintenance release with 2 translation related bugs fixed (File/Open menu entry not translated, several languages missing). Apart from that the full path of the currently opened file is now displayed in the windows title thanks to a PR from @humdinger.

AbiWord updated to 2.0.7 (32bit build is broken on buildmaster, issue created).

Local build looks a bit off (not sure what is happening here, no meaningfull output from Terminal)

Bluefish updated to 2.2.17 (thanks on the wayland keymap fixes this is usable now)
