Thanks - it always helps to know that configure.py is finding everything correctly. > I had one minor problem: the configure script complained about a missing > file (kkeyserver.sip) which I cured by commenting out the %Include for it > in kdecore-kde342.diff. That's exactly the right thing to do - the corresponding h file contains nothing but a #include, so the .sip file doesn't exist. That's one of those bugs that won't die - I keep trying to stamp it out and it keeps coming back. I'll fix it again. > All the talk about compiling in thirty minutes (or less) made me smile a > bit.

A few years ago I had a 600 MHz Celeron machine around (inherited from someone else) and it took over 6 hours without concatenating the files. I use a couple of 800MHz/512MB boxes for most of the development. Their biggest problem (besides slow compilation) is that I have them split into a bunch of 4GB partitions for different KDE versions, and the partitions are getting too small. I have another 800MHz file server and I'm still running a 300MHz mail server and another 300MHz machine in the stockroom that runs mostly OpenOffice (just put SuSE 10.0 on it). The two servers have been up 557 days, since the power was out for a day-and-a-half, and were up over a year before that. (As I finished typing the last sentence, this machine, which is a 1.6GHz Athlon, just spontaneously rebooted - flaky RAM, I think - but somehow I didn't lose this msg??) > This is the first time I've compiled pykde.

I'll have to take a look at configure.py and see what might cause that, but I can't imagine what would.
