Gwenview for Slack 12.2 in Slack64.


The multilib files are installed as is support for KDE 3 compatibiliy so I installed Gwenview (gwenview-1.4.2-i486-4sl.tgz), but when I try to run it an error message is returned saying it it can't find libkdeprint.so.4 in the shared libraries. libkdeprint.so.4 is installed, so where do I have to move a copy to get Gwenview to work?
Many Thanks.

This package was built for Slackware 12.2 not 13.0. 12.2 has KDE3 libraries in /usr/* Slackware 13.0 has KDE3.x libraries in /opt/kde3/*.

Slackbuilds.org has a SlackBuild for the older version of Gwenview in their 12.2 repo link. Edit the SlackBuild to reflect your system.

hint
Export the correct QTDIR and change the --prefix=/usr to --prefix=/opt/kde3. Maybe more

Yes, but like KDE 4 itself it is not as functional as the KDE 3.5.x version.
