The '''tdeaddons''' package includes a few plug-ins and scripts integrating and adding features to the '''Trinity Desktop Environment''' included software. The additional features affect some applications like '''Kate''': an advanced text editor, Kfile, Kicker: the application bar manager, '''Konqueror''': the integrated web browser, '''Noatun''': the default media player and KNewsTicker. The package is obviously optional and no TDE base functionality will go missing by not installing it.

The tdeaddons package replaces kdeaddons for KDE 3.5. The build system relies on '''autotools''' and has not been ported to [http://www.cmake.org cmake] yet. The kdeaddons build script can be used for tdeaddons, but some updates and tweaks are due. The following rules were applied when compiling the package to ensure a clean build:
