I'm trying to build an application for KDE, kpeoplevcard, available from

github. The compilation goes OK, but ld produces a large number of

undefined references, so it looks like I should install some libraries.

What's the easiest way to find out which libraries to install?

That's very odd that it would compile and fail to link.  To have the

headers, you need the devel package and that will require the library

package.  Did you run a configure step of some sort?  That should detect

any missing libraries.

It can be difficult to go from a link error to the required library.

Can you show an example?

The program is on github and can be downloaded by:

git clone https://invent.kde.org/pim/kpeoplevcard

The output of the build process is attached as all.

 

With cmake you need "make VERBOSE=1" to see details.

See https://invent.kde.org/pim/kpeoplevcard/-/blob/master/src/CMakeLists.txt

for a list of required libraries.
