kopete compile error

[icebreaker101010]

Hi.I have a problem with compiling kopete 0.12.7 from svn.

This are the commands :

svn co -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kdenetwork
cd kdenetwork
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common/admin
svn up kopete
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure --enable-debug
cd kopete
make
su -c "make install"



After command "./configure --enable-debug" it give me this error:

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 read about on google and the solution is to install kde-devel .But if i do this ,it will install something more than that,including some kde4 stuff.And i don't need it.What is the solution for this?

Thanks

Hi there, and welcome to the forums!

'round here we like to use package managers to get and install software and it's dependencies. I just ran BT4 Final live and ran an apt-get install kopete and just had to install a bunch of libraries along with the binary, so this shouldn't break your system. Alternatively, you can use aptitude install kopete.
