firefox & superkaramba themes
 

Hi!
I'd like to run superkaramba themes on my fluxbox desktop (slack 10.0), but I can't make them work properly. I have neither kde nor gnome installed. I installed superkaramba succesfully, but I don't know what I need else. I suppose some kde packages are required, currently I downloaded kdebase, kdelibs, arts, but that didn't help.
First of all, when I lunch superkaramba from console, it says:

QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used

But then the welcome screen appears and everything seems to be fine. However, when, for instance, I try to open cynapses_karamba monitor theme, I get these errors:

Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]

ImportError: No module named sys_mon
------------------------------------------------------
What does ImportError mean?

It means that I couldn't load a python add-on for sys_mon.theme
If this is a regular theme and doesn't use python
extensions, then nothing is wrong.

Any ideas?

Well, I tried to check dependencies for superkaramba 0.34 using my gentoo distro. It gave one of the lenghtiest list I ever saw, but remarkable was, it uses:
kde-env-3,
python-fschsum-1.7.1, and of course
python 2.3.4.

In your configure step you should notice that it doesn't find the Python headers and libraries.
Install the python-devel package and do a make again.
That should fix your problem, however the transparency doesn't work properly in Fluxbox and I'm currently working on a way to implement that.
