The group include base libraries used throughout the desktop environment by applications. All packages here grouped do not use the '''automake''' utility to compile: they were migrated to [http://www.cmake.org/ '''cmake''']. The slackbuild scripts for kDE 3 were '''written for automake and were thus updated accordingly'''.

'''The base package list ends''' with tdeaddons. By installing the previously built packages You'll obtain a full desktop environment rich with functionality, programs and services. Before moving on to the optional applications and packages it is worth spending some time developing a main script meant to '''automate the build procedure''' shortening packaging time. The script should call build scripts for individual packages in the order suggested by the [http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuild TDE documentation]. Individual scripts can be downloaded by the respective article page. Following the Slackware KDE 3 philosophy, the script was named '''TDE.SlackBuild'''. The directory build tree should be created before running the script. The directory schema being:
-rwxr--r-- TDE.SlackBuild
drwxr-xr-x arts
drwxr-xr-x dbus-1-tqt
drwxr-xr-x dbus-tqt
drwxr-xr-x libcaldav
drwxr-xr-x libcarddav
drwxr-xr-x qt3
drwxr-xr-x sip4-tqt
drwxr-xr-x tdeaccessibility
drwxr-xr-x tdeaddons
drwxr-xr-x tdeadmin
drwxr-xr-x tdeartwork
drwxr-xr-x tdebase
drwxr-xr-x tdebindings
drwxr-xr-x tdeedu
drwxr-xr-x tdegames
drwxr-xr-x tdegraphics
drwxr-xr-x tdelibs
drwxr-xr-x tdemultimedia
drwxr-xr-x tdenetwork
drwxr-xr-x tdepim
drwxr-xr-x tdesdk
drwxr-xr-x tdetoys
drwxr-xr-x tdeutils
drwxr-xr-x tdevelop
Every directory should contain the respective '''source code archive''' plus '''the build scripts''' obtained from previous articles. To build and install the whole desktop environment simply run command '''./TDE.SlackBuild'''. A full copy of the main script can be downloaded from the following [http://www.giustetti.net/resource/slackbuild/tde/35132/tde.tar.gz link].
=== Applications ===
=== Applications ===
TDE is a full desktop environment and provides a software development kit for developers eager to write software fully integrated with it. In the years many programmers answered the call this resulting in a greatly increased availability of integrated applications. '''Approximately one hundred additional packages exist'''. Below I'll write build scripts for some of those packages: the ones I usually work with:
* [[En/TDE_tdewebdev | '''tdewebdev''']]
* [[En/TDE_k3b | '''k3b''']]
* [[En/TDE_k3b-i18n | '''k3b-i18n''']]
* [[En/TDE_krename | '''krename''']]
* [[En/TDE_ktorrent | '''ktorrent''']]
== '''Updated Packages / Scripts''' ==
TDE and many other Open Source projects periodically release all of their packages in order to present users with new functionality. The build procedure needs updating for each release. A recent release of the build tree ans scripts can be downloaded from the following [[En/trinity_desktop_environment_14.0.0#Package_SlackBuild_script |web page]].
