I noticed in the mail about the &Sendmail; issue that you seem to be compiling the whole source tree of the KDE component in order to rebuild the documentation. You don't really need to do that. (It's a good thing to know so you can test the latest versions of applications to find new things to fix in the documentation, but not strictly necessary for just working on them.) Instead, you can use `meinproc4` to compile the documentation, which will just dump *.html files right in the current working directory. For example, to compile the KMail docs: cd /path/to/git/clone/of/kdepim/doc/kmail/ meinproc4 index.docbook Then you can open them in Konqueror or KHelpCenter: konqueror index.html khelpcenter index.html And, clean up when you're done (though you don't strictly have to do this if you're careful with git): rm *.html -T.C.
