%general-entities; ]> falkon Falkon is a KDE web browser using the QtWebEngine rendering engine. It was previously known as QupZilla. It aims to be a lightweight web browser available through all major platforms. Although falkon is now part of KDE, it can be installed without KDE (with the loss of kwallet functionality). Falkon relies on QtWebEngine. Please read the warning on that page. &lfs121_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &falkon-md5sum; Download size: &falkon-size; Estimated disk space required: &falkon-buildsize; Estimated build time: &falkon-time; falkon Dependencies Required , (for karchive), and Strictly speaking, only karchive is required to build falkon, but several other packages in can be used if they are present. To build only karchive, download that package from the directory specified in and use the build instructions on that page changing the $KF6_PREFIX to /usr. Optional , PySide2, and Shiboken2 Editor Notes: Install falkon by running the following commands: mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ .. && make Tests should be run after installation. Now, as the root user: make install && ldconfig To test the results, issue: make test. All tests should pass. If any fail, the full results will be in Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log. When upgrading this package, it is possible that the contents of the application will remain empty even though everything else appears to be working properly. In this case try removing ~/.cache/falkon and restarting the program. If you have installed Pyside2 you will want to examine hellopython.py which is in the scripts/ directory, and perhaps copy it to your home directory. If you are on a non-x86_64 architecture and run into problems with missing text, you may wish to export QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--no-sandbox" prior to running Falkon. -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF: This will save a little time and space by not building the test programs, use this if you do not wish to run the test.
