Im trying to compile bespin svn in slackware 13 but I get the following error. I was following the instructions in the included INSTALL file for "YOU HAVE CMAKE".
Code:
WARNING: KWin headers NOT found, compiling the decoration might fail.
-> Ensure you've installed the kdebase[-workspace]-dev package
So I guess my question is, where can I find this? I did try compiling anyway, but the window borders where the drop shadow should be were all screwed up and looked like a thick solid black border all the way around.
1) download bespinSVN by running "svn co https://cloudcity.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cloudcity"
2) then cd cloudcity
3) ./configure, then just follow the directions
4) (optionl) to make a slackware package you can use gnashley's scr2pkg program but using "trackinstall -i='make install'. Which will make a package for you in /tmp.

Ok,I guess I should elaborate. I compiled this way that your describing the very first time and it worked except for the black border that I was talking about. I ran make uninstall and make clean, then removed the entire cloudcity directory and redownloaded everything so I could start again from a clean slate, just in case. The second time I tried following the instructions in the INSTALL file for "You have cmake" like I described above and got the error that I posted above. I repeated the removal process. Now after you posted I tried doing it this way that you described again, but I get this error now when I run make. (I have no idea why it worked the first time and not now, its the same svn revision)

Also tried configuring and making as root, even though it shouldn't be required until the make install phase, but same result as above.
I tried installing your precompiled binary, and only the bespin window border part shows up, but not the bespin widget style. Tried rebooting too but still only the window border part.
I use slackware-13 and some packages from current (I know, that is no good solution) and kde4.3.4. Now I checked, no problem, the bespin works on my computer, I can choose bespin widget style (but when I remember good, I had some problems with it previously after setting up, but now it works well).
If needed I can send you a list of all packages I use.
