Guest pdeleenh Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 When trying to compile any Kile version (I tried 1.4., 1.6, 1.7.1) under Mandrake 10.1 Official, there is a problem during ./configure --prefix=/usr. Following error is returned: ---------------------------------------- checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! ---------------------------------------- I used the prefix that was returned by kde-config --prefix. After looking some time I assume this means I need to find the headers in kdelibs4-devel package. But I can't find it. Does anybody know ? Anybody knows where else I can find these headers ?

devries Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 KDE headers Header files are not installed with the program. Mandrake is a 'binary' distro. These files are put in seperate packages called 'devel'. (these files are not needed by the program so only occupy space). You need to install kdebase-devel (urpmi kdebase-devel) and others. Have a look in the Mandrake Control Center, install software. Important: Mandrake uses urpmi to install software (see the FAQs). Try first urpmi kile. Good luck.

Guest pdeleenh Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 well in my case it should then be "kdebase-devel 3.2.3" , but this package is not part of the Mandrake 10.1 Official distribution. Searching the net, also turned out into nothing.... thx, pdeleenh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest koj Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hello, When trying to compile any Kile version (I tried 1.7.1, 1.8) under Mandrake 10.2 LE 2005, there is a problem during ./configure --prefix=/usr. Following error is returned: ---------------------------------------- checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! ---------------------------------------- I have check all the libs that was needed, like all the kdelibs4 related packages, but I still get the same eror. Anybody who know where the problem is?? koj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpatrick Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 The main kde development package is libkdebase4-devel-<version no.>. See this link: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idp...k.i586.rpm.html The development packages in mandrake/mandriva almost always hav a "lib" in front and a "devel" toward the back.

scarecrow Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) Before running ./configure simply do (in the same console session): export KDEDIR=/usr Notice that this export will last only as long as your terminal session- if you want to make this environment variable permanent you must insert it in one of your startup scripts.

I have tried this installation from mdk 9.0, 9.1, and 10.0. and it worked. I was wondering why this dows not work in mnk 10.2 LE. With regard to the suggestions export KDEDIR=/usr, I did that already but still I get the same error. checking if Qt needs -ljpeg... no checking for rpath... yes checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! It this a problem with 10.2?? koj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
