Hi: Still waiting for dld to complete so I thought I'd give KDE2.1 build a shot. I was rebuilding qt2-2.2.4-3mdk.src.rpm and everything going OK until: "... Creating makefiles... You wanted to compile the Qt Designer with KDE2 support, but $KDEDIR does not point to a valid KDE2 installation. KDE support has been turned off. ... " This was partially because I did not have KDE2 installed. The build completed. Today, I installed KDE2.1-20001210... on my 7.2 devel box and began the build again. *** I got the same error. *** (Note that I did the rpm --rebuilddb, updatedb and update-menus before starting the build again.) Why is the QTD support turned off by default? Also, if $KDEDIR is so important, why is it not created _properly_ during the KDE install? And, btw, where is it _suppose_ to point in order for qt 2.2.4 to be hap-hap-happy? We need QT to build and install KDE2.1. The error indicates that I have to have KDE2.x as a 'valid installation' in order to build with QT Designer support which I want to have with the KDE installation that I did not have. Now, even though KDE2.1(CVS) is installed, it still gives the same error. This does not compute. First, Can somebody on the team please fix qt-2,2,4 so that build will occur with KDE support in QT Designer even if KDE is not installed at the time of the QT build _or_ maybe split out the 'Designer' so it can be built after QT and KDE are installed? Second, certainly the error should not be ''KDE support has been turned off''; it should be ''KDE suport for QTD has been turned off'', should it not?(I hope!) Third, KDE($KDEDIR) and/or qt need a good thrashing for making me do all of this.:) Please note that the above message occured _twice_ during the hour long build with both CPUs running at ~ 98% avg. It is quite disconcerting to know that I have to rebuild it again. QT build is longer, harder on CPUs than mozilla!(but builds better). Regards, rj Linux: Get it. Use it. Improve it. =================================== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo! Mail. http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/
