- - compiling error (https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/compiling-error-342781/)

Hello all.

I am trying to install on FC2 the kdar. I haven't been able to locate an rpm so I am trying with source code. The README says the following:

Quote:

Default prefix is $KDEDIR. Make sure your KDEDIR is set. Use --prefix=$HOME/.kde to install in your local kde directory.

In the beginning I started with just

Code:

./compile

It didn't work out. So I had to try with the --prefix option. So I needed to find out where the kde is installed.

Code:

$ kde-config --prefix

/usr

So I tried

Code:

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr

But I still get the same error.

After a lot of ok the error is the following:

Quote:

........
checking for makekdewidgets... not found
configure: error: The important program makekdewidgets was not found!
Please check whether you installed KDE correctly.

How can I continue in order to finally get the installation done?

thanx in advance

PS A better idea: Where can I find rpms for kdar? I've looked everywhere...

thanx for the immediate reply

I checked there as well. There isn't an rpm for fedora

Kdar installation problems

It seems that I have no luck in kdar. I did find rpm but not for fc2 which I use but for fc3. So I installed them and everything was ok during installation. No problem at all. but then when I try to start kdar I get a very odd message:

Code:

$ kdar

kdar: Symbol `_ZTI7QWidget' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking

kdar: Symbol `_ZTIN6KParts4PartE' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking

kdar: Symbol `_ZTI11KMainWindow' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking

kdar: error while loading shared libraries: kdar: undefined symbol: _ZN11KMainWindow7setIconERK7QPixmap

$

Can someone help me out here?

Thanx in advance
