Super Karamba Installation: error at "make"
 

Hi,

I've been trying to install Super Karamba on Mandrake 9.2 and can't get the "make" command to work. So far I've installed the necessary RPMs ( libart_lgpl, qt-devel, kdelibs-devel) and autoconf-2.5. I ran "./configure" for super karamba, and it worked: there were no errors. But when I type in "make", I get the following:

[root@localhost karamba-0.32b]# make

What do I need to do now?

Thanks!

I always had a hell of a time trying to put SK on MDK 9.2. Even after all the error messeges, I'd open up my home folder, show all hidden files and it was in there. Or go to your run command and type superkaramba. Still might work despite all the errors.

I just can't figure out a way to have it reappear when I restart x. I always have to load everything up manually after reboot.

Seems to me you lack something called Python.h. Try to find information about that and keep the facts relevant with Super Karamba.

Good luck. Marc A

Works
 

I don't know if this is considered a "cop-out" in the linux world, but I downloaded the superkaramba rpm and then installed that. First, it told me that I needed to install the xmmsctrl rpm, so I did that and then SK installed without a hitch. I am now running an osxbar tuxbar theme and it's working perfectly. I don't need to reload it when mandrake starts up because it seems that mandrake always restarts programs that were running when it was shut down.

About the automatic restart of SK: if SK doesn't start up automatically, you can go the folder /home/myusername/.kde/Autostart. Then make a new "Link to Application" and put <path to superkaramba> <path to theme> in the "command" field and it will start up your application on startup. That works for me, but when I restart with this link, Mandrake first starts up SK and then the link starts up SK again, which makes SK behave strangely (i.e. the icons in the osxbar move spontaneously ).

Thanks for your help!
