Is anyone interested in helping out on this? I'm working on cleaning up the patches I have so that they're more correct (they're very badly hacked up at this point, just to get everything running), but I can give pointers on how I got this far... I just know that the issues I'm facing now are way out of my league. I'm very familiar with packaging and basic "makefile is broken" issues, but I'm most definitely not a C/C++ coder.
It looks like most everything in kdelibs and kdebase (at least the important stuff) works, except for kdeinit. It should be possible to get at least something out of it if this gets fixed. (Except for some quirks, I've successfully run kwin, konsole, konqueror, and a couple of other smaller things.) ----- Forwarded message from Waldo Bastian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- > On Wednesday 13 March 2002 07:33 am, Benjamin Reed wrote: > > With the new libdl compatibility library in development for OSX, I've > > been able to get arts, kdelibs, and kdebase to build.
