Hi guys, I' m new to this mailing list and to the KDE community. I' m a newby in KDE development but I have a not so bad knowledge of Linux. I don't know if this is the right place to post these kind of requests and if it is not the case I'd ask you to point me where can I post it. I was trying to build kde following instructions at
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source#Run_kdesrc-build I executed exactly all steps reported there and installed all required packages from official distro repository except for cmake 2.8.12 that I found at https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/cmake/2.8.12/3.fc21/x86_64/cmake-2.8.12-3.fc21.x86_64.rpm and installed with yum localinstall. My host is a CentOS 7 x64 VMware virtual machine. First few modules are built correctly without any problem using kdesrc-build but build process stops on kcoreaddons with the following error: Building CXX object src/lib/CMakeFiles/KF5CoreAddons.dir/KF5CoreAddons_automoc.cpp.o Linking CXX shared library libKF5CoreAddons.so /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lThreads::Threads collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status gmake[2]: *** [src/lib/libKF5CoreAddons.so.5.21.0] Errore 1 gmake[1]: *** [src/lib/CMakeFiles/KF5CoreAddons.dir/all] Errore 2 gmake: *** [all] Errore 2 while the following is the cmake log I find # kdesrc-build running: 'cmake' '/home/lfranco/devel/kde/src/frameworks/kcoreaddons' '-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=debug' '-DKDE4_BUILD_TESTS=true' '-DBUILD_TESTING=TRUE' '-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=debug' '-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING=-std=c++11 -pipe -DQT_STRICT_ITERATORS -DQURL_NO_CAST_FROM_STRING -DQT_NO_HTTP -DQT_NO_FTP -Wformat -Werror=format-security -Werror=return-type -Wno-variadic-macros -Wlogical-op -Wmissing-include-dirs ' '-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/lfranco/devel/kde/usr' # from directory: /home/lfranco/devel/kde/build/frameworks/kcoreaddons -- The C compiler identification is GNU 4.8.5 -- The CXX compiler identification is GNU 4.8.5 -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/cc -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/bin/cc -- works -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - done -- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- works -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info -- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done -- -- Looking for __GLIBC__ -- Looking for __GLIBC__ - found -- Performing Test _OFFT_IS_64BIT -- Performing Test _OFFT_IS_64BIT - Success -- Looking for include file pthread.h -- Looking for include file pthread.h - found -- Looking for pthread_create -- Looking for pthread_create - not found -- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads -- Looking for pthread_create in pthreads - not found -- Looking for pthread_create in pthread -- Looking for pthread_create in pthread - found -- Found Threads: TRUE -- Could NOT find FAM (missing: FAM_INCLUDE_DIR FAM_LIBRARIES) -- Looking for include file sys/inotify.h -- Looking for include file sys/inotify.h - found -- Looking for include files sys/types.h, sys/mman.h -- Looking for include files sys/types.h, sys/mman.h - found -- Looking for getgrouplist -- Looking for getgrouplist - found -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_HIDDEN_VISIBILITY -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_HIDDEN_VISIBILITY - Success -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_HIDDEN_INLINE_VISIBILITY -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_HIDDEN_INLINE_VISIBILITY - Success -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_DEPRECATED_ATTR -- Performing Test COMPILER_HAS_DEPRECATED_ATTR - Success -- Found SharedMimeInfo: /usr/bin/update-mime-database (found suitable version "1.1", minimum required is "0.70") -- Performing Test HAVE_QFILESYSTEMWATCHER -- Performing Test HAVE_QFILESYSTEMWATCHER - Success -- -- The following OPTIONAL packages have been found: * Threads * SharedMimeInfo (required version >= 0.70) , A database of common MIME types , <http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/shared-mime-info/> Allows KDE applications to determine file types -- The following REQUIRED packages have been found: * ECM (required version >= 5.20.0) , Extra CMake Modules. , <https://projects.kde.org/projects/kdesupport/extra-cmake-modules> * Qt5Core * Qt5 (required version >= 5.3.0) -- The following OPTIONAL packages have not been found: * FAM , File alteration notification support via a separate service , <http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam> Provides file alteration notification facilities using a separate service.

Can someone point me to some documentation that could help to solve the problem? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Best regards, raffaele.
