Hello, Everyone I am compiling and installing KDE from SVN (Branch 3.5) on Fedora Core 5. All is going perfectly, except the following: linking ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/kopete_nowlistening.la /bin/sh ./libtool --silent --mode=link --tag=CXX g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -g3 -fno-inline -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -I/home/kdefc5/CVS/KDE-SVN/kdenetwork/kopete/libkopete -I./kopete/libkopete -I/home/kdefc5/CVS/KDE-SVN/kdenetwork/kopete/libkopete/avdevice -I/home/kdefc5/CVS/KDE-SVN/kdenetwork/kopete/libkopete/ui -I./kopete/libkopete/ui -I/usr/local//include -I/usr/local//include/xmms -I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/local/kde-svn-fc5/include -I/usr/local/qt-src/include -I. -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -module -avoid-version -module -no-undefined -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--allow-shlib-undefined -R /usr/local/kde-svn-fc5/lib -R /usr/local/kde-svn-fc5/lib -R /usr/local/qt-src/lib -R /usr/lib -rdynamic -L/usr/local/kde-svn-fc5/lib -L/usr/local/qt-src/lib -L/usr/lib -o ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/kopete_nowlistening.la -rpath /usr/local/kde-svn-fc5/lib/kde3 ./kopete/libkopete/libkopete.la -L/usr/local//lib -L/usr/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm -lxmms ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nowlisteningconfig.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nowlisteningplugin.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nlkscd.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nlnoatun.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nlxmms.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nowlisteningguiclient.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nljuk.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nlamarok.lo ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/nlkaffeine.lo grep: /usr/lib/libgtk.la: No such file or directory /bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libgtk.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libgtk.la' is not a valid libtool archive Error creating ./kopete/plugins/nowlistening/kopete_nowlistening.la. Exit status 1. I deleted kdenetwork/kopete and did "svn up kdenetwork" and then proceeded to recompile. Same error. If I delete "kopete" from "kdenetwork/subdirs" and save that file as "kdenetwork/inst-apps" and Then recompile, kdenetwork will then finish compiling. I got the same error compiling kdeutils. In that case, it bailed while compiling "superkaramba" Again, removing that directory and following the procedure outlined in the above paragraph resulted in EXACTLY the same result: I had to delete "superkaramba" from "subdirs" and resave that file as "insta-apps" to get kdeutils to build. This is a fresh install of Fedora Core 5 (done just last night.) The Fedora project has eliminated the "Install Everything" option, which I always used to use, so it's quite possible (actually likely) that the fault lies with Fedora. I have ran "yum install" to install everything that either begins with gtk or contains gtk in the middle of the name. This has not fixed the problem. Also, the offending /usr/lib/libgtk.la does not seem to exist anywhere on my system. I would have tried just making a symlink to whereever it was located, since this has worked with a few issues that I had with Fedora Core 3. If this is a Fedora packaging issue, please let me know so that I can take this up with them. Have a Great Day, Steven P. Ulrick ___________________________________________________ .
