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 ?

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.

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,

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??

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 installed kde libs, such as the libkdebase4-devel-<version no.>. 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??
