compiling KDE3.1b2 with mdk 9.0

[Guest stefbaly]

I tried to install kde 3.1 beta 2 from sources for a mandrake 9.0.

Autoconf and automake have been upgrade.

 

And I've a problem with ./configure checking for libXext. I've checked and libXext is already install.

 

Could you help me ? Do you know how to fix this problem.

 

./configure

configure:22398: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!

 

or

./configure --x--includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib

configure:22509: result: no

configure:22523: checking for libXext

/usr//bin/ld: cannot find -lXext

# endif

int F77_DUMMY_MAIN() { return 1; }

#endif

main ()

{

 

printf("hello Xextn");

 

;

return 0;

}

configure:22587: result: no

configure:22593: error: We need a working libXext to proceed. Since configure can't find it itself, we stop here assuming that make wouldn't find them either.

The cooker mailing list shows its been made, so if you can find it on a cooker site, no need to comile it yourself.

 

Also, KDE 3.04 or atleast the in-work branch is out also on cooker :)
