I wanted to keep the dar and libdar versions in openSUSE 10.3 but also
use KDar, so I built libdar from the dar-2.2.5 sources, and installed it
within my home directory.  Then I built kdar-2.0.7 linking to this
libdar.  But in doing this I encountered a configuration problem.  On
the command line with the invocation of configure I passed CPPFLAGS and
LDFLAGS set to the dar-2.2.5 include and lib directories, but configure
still complained that it couldn't find libdar, although it was in the
lib directory.  The only solution I found was to symlink this libdar to
/usr/lib (which of course I had to do as root).  Then I could build kdar
and it works fine.  But I assume it should be possible to build and
install it completely locally, without becoming root.  Does anyone know
what I missed?
