Trouble compiling kdebase
 

./configure gets me not errors but when it has been compiling for some time it stops and says:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lxkbfile
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [kcm_keyboard.la.closure] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kdebase-3.1.4/kxkb'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kdebase-3.1.4/kxkb'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kdebase-3.1.4'
make: *** [all] Error 2
The file is there, I've checked. And /usr/X11R6/lib (the location of libxkbfile) is in my ld.so.conf. So there shouldn't be any trouble.

Any help is greatly appreciated so if you have anything that might help a little, don't hesitate to write it here.

"The file is there, I've checked. And /usr/X11R6/lib (the location of libxkbfile) is in my ld.so.conf."

You may need to run the ldconfig command if you have not done so since /usr/X11R6/lib was added to ld.so.conf.

Yeah, I've run ldconfig.
