Hi Here are the results of my first go at building KDE4.
1. I neaded to manually install a couple of the packages (SUNW southern europe and KBEenv) as they failed with a message like The following files are already installed on the system and are being used by another package: * /opt/kdebld <attribute change only> 2. /opt/kdebld/bin/env.sh has a bug in it - it fails to unset any multiline environment variable. In my case, PS1, which I have set to "`uname -n`:\$PWD `/usr/ucb/whoami`> " 3. make in the SPECS directory didn't get very far: pkgbuild: /opt/SUNWspro/bin/c99 -Xc -errshort=full -errfmt=error -errwarn=%none -s -xcsi -xustr=ascii_utf16_ushort -xalias_level=std -features=extinl -xF=%none -xbuiltin=%all -xinline=%auto -xprefetch=auto -xprefetch_auto_type=indirect_array_access -xprefetch_level=3 -xsafe=mem -xthreadvar=%all -z combreloc -z redlocsym -z nodefaultlib -z ignore -z now -z rescan -z absexec -xipo=0 -xldscope=symbolic -xlibmil -s -xO3 -xregs=no%frameptr -xjobs=2 -Kpic -xrestrict=%all -xipo=0 -xtarget=opteron -m64 -xchip=opteron -xcache=64/64/2:1024/64/16 -lm -ldl -lc -lpthread -lposix4 -lrt -mt -L/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/amd64 -R/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -R/usr/lib/amd64 -prefer-non-pic -L/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/amd64 -R/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -R/usr/lib/amd64 -z combreloc -z redlocsym -z nodefaultlib -z ignore -z now -z rescan -z absexec -xipo=0 -xldscope=symbolic -xlibmil -s -xtarget=opteron -m64 -xchip=opteron -xcache=64/64/2:1024/64/16 -lm -ldl -lc -lpthread -lposix4 -lrt -mt -G -z defs -z now -h liba52.so.0 -o .libs/liba52.so.0.0.0 .libs/bitstream.o .libs/imdct.o .libs/bit_allocate.o .libs/parse.o .libs/downmix.o -R/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -R/usr/lib/amd64 -L/opt/foss/lib/amd64 -L/usr/lib/amd64 -ldl -lc -lpthread -lposix4 -lrt -lm -lc -s -xcsi -xustr=ascii_utf16_ushort -xalias_level=std -features=extinl -xF=%none -xbuiltin=%all -xinline=%auto -xprefetch=auto -xprefetch_auto_type=indirect_array_access -xprefetch_level=3 -xsafe=mem -xthreadvar=%all -z combreloc -z redlocsym -z nodefaultlib -z ignore -z now -z rescan -z absexec -xipo=0 -xldscope=symbolic -xlibmil -s -xO3 -xregs=no%frameptr -xjobs=2 -xrestrict=%all -xipo=0 -xtarget=opteron -xchip=opteron -xcache=64/64/2:1024/64/16 -z combreloc -z redlocsym -z nodefaultlib -z ignore -z now -z rescan -z absexec -xipo=0 -xldscope=symbolic -xlibmil -s -xtarget=opteron -xchip=opteron -xcache=64/64/2:1024/64/16 pkgbuild: ld: warning: option -r and -zcombreloc are incompatible pkgbuild: ld: fatal: option -dn and -h are incompatible pkgbuild: ld: fatal: option -dn and -G are incompatible pkgbuild: ld: warning: option -r and -s both set; only debugging information stripped pkgbuild: ld: fatal: Flags processing errors That's a serious number of options - I've never seen so many before.
