For the webapplet, you need to apply the contents.diff patch to your qt-copy. It won't apply cleanly, but it's relatively easy to squeeze it in.

The issue with the worldclock has been reported to the author.

In both cases, you can just comment the offender in CMakeLists.txt in the parent directory and thus exclude them from the build. Note that that's playground where basically nothing is guaranteed to work, or even compile :)

Yeah, I know, but playground is so much fun to use :)
Usually it took only a few hours/days and then I could build it again, but this time ist a little bit more complicated it seems.

I built qt-copy with all the patches, at least I set the apply-qt-patches in kdesvn-build to true. maybe I need to rebuild it.

Oh, contents.diff is not in qt-copy, but in the webapplet. that's the problem.
Is there a howto on techbase how to apply the patches, or is it enough to copy the patch to qt-copy? I've never done this manually before.

Basically, to apply a .diff or .patch file, open a console in the target folder (in this case most definitely the root directory of qt-copy; check the file names in the .diff file to be sure) and say `patch < /path/to/my/contents.diff`. The output should list a couple of files being patched.

These manual changes might get overwritten when qt-copy gets updated. If playground/base fails to build, try to apply the patch again. However, this might cause problems if some files did not get changed, they might be patched twice (which is most certainly not good). The safest way is to delete the checkout of qt-copy and download and build it again (but this takes some time as far as I know).
