=== Why Is Directory ''/tmp/build/'' Always Empty ? ===
 
=== Why Is Directory ''/tmp/build/'' Always Empty ? ===
 
Temporary files are deleted every time a package finishes building in order to save disk space otherwise the 1 Gb value suggested above will not suffice.

=== The Script builds All of TDE Packages ? ===
 +
Yes, almost all.
 +
 +
=== The Script builds All of TDE Prerequisites ? ===
 +
All except '''avahi-tqt''', that was excluded because Slackware does not ship a package for '''avahi'''.
 +
 +
=== The Script builds All of TDE Base Packages ? ===
 +
Yes, all.
 +
 +
=== The Script builds All of TDE Optional Libraries and Enhancements ? ===
 +
Yes, all.
 +
 +
=== The Script builds Any of the TDE Applications ? ===
 +
No, no application. TDE includes a lot of applications, but I use almost no one so I never tried to build them all.
 +
 +
=== Did You Ever Try to Build Any of the Applications ? ===
 +
I managed to build '''k3b''', '''krename''' and '''ktorrent''' in the past, but I can not provide up to date instructions about them.
 +
 +
=== Where Are Finished Packages Saved ? ===
 +
Once built, packages are saved into the ''/tmp'' directory.
