I would like to request Smooth Tasks Fork for mageia because the package kde plasma smooth tasks is broken. Smooth Tasks Fork is a fork of Smooth Task. Smooth Tasks is a fork of the STasks plasma applet. STasks is written by Marcin Baszczewski (marcin.baszczewski@gmail.com) Smooth Tasks is written by Mathias Panzenböck (grosser.meister.morti@gmx.net) Smooth Tasks Fork is written by Toni Dietze (smooth-tasks@derflupp.e4ward.com) Requirements The current version requires KDE Plasma Workspaces 4.8. Site: https://bitbucket.org/flupp/smooth-tasks-fork Source: https://bitbucket.org/flupp/smooth-tasks-fork/get/e794677f5b85.zip I found it packaged for Fedora: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/k/kde-plasma-smooth-tasks-0.0.1-0.8.20120313hge8a97edfdebc.fc19.src.rpm Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Differences to panziâs [https://bitbucket.org/panzi/smooth-tasks/] version major code restructuring improved/extended layout animations support for optimal button size depending on the task icon and the title bar text extra options to configure a minimum and maximum button size option to configure the minimal space an task icon occupies on a button MaxSqueezeTaskbarLayout is deprecated (while still not removed) launcher support (thanks to jimi312 ) task shape option deprecated, use minimal icon space now options to anchor the light effect (lock horizontal or vertical movement of light) support for rectangular icons rewrote grouping behavior (against repeated grouping and ungrouping) workaround option: custom margins for light effect rewrote code for sizeHint and TaskManager::GroupManager::setFullLimit(int) to prevent endless layouting loops option to enable/disable hiding of tooltip after clicking fixed/invalidated bugs from http://bitbucket.org/panzi/smooth-tasks/issues/?status=new&status=open 2 (rewrote sizeHint code) 12 (reason for the fork) 24 (use minimal icon space) https://bitbucket.org/flupp/smooth-tasks-fork/wiki/Home
Perhaps Imenut that keeps IconTask could also add the package Smooth Task Fork in Caudron.
Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes. You might also want to join the packager team to maintain this piece of software: see https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Becoming_a_Mageia_Packager

As it was a KDE4 extension (last available version from 2016), closing as WONT.
