This is it: i can not compile keramik
this is the error i get

[root@inferna gnemmi]# mv keramik/ /usr/local/
[root@inferna gnemmi]# cd /usr/local/keramik/
[root@inferna keramik]# ./build_keramik.sh

[root@inferna keramik]#

but the thing is that i have the autoconf 2.52-3cl.rpm as well as autoconf 2.13-3cl.rpm packages installed.

Now if i want to remove autoconf 2.13-3cl.rpm via synaptic, it will also remove autoconf 2.52-3cl.rpm leaving me without any autoconf whatsoever

what can i do?
why is it that i have so many problems when trying to copile?
i'm i doing something wrong?

thanks

Hi again caleb


try this:

# rpm -e --justdb --noscripts autoconf-2.13-3cl

hi again Tulio

[root@inferna gnemmi]# rpm -e --justdb --noscripts autoconf-2.13-3cl
error: paquete autoconf-2.13-3cl no está instalado

so it seems that it's not installed but when I open Synaptic it appears to be installed

thanks for helping me out

oops i just cheked on synaptic again and the packets I've got installed are:

autconf 2.52-3cl
autoconf2.13 2.13-1cl

now if I try to remove autoconf2.13 2.13-1cl, synaptic will also remove autconf 2.52-3cl leaving me without any autocnf packages

Hi caleb,

try the same think, but with the package autoconf2.13-2.13-1cl:

# rpm -e --justdb --noscripts autoconf2.13-2.13-1cl

[root@inferna gnemmi]# rpm -e --justdb --noscripts autoconf2.13-2.13-1cl
error: la eliminación de estos paquetes interrumpiría dependencias:
autoconf2.13 es necesario para autoconf-2.52-3cl
[root@inferna gnemmi]#

it says that by eliminating that package I would break dependencies and that autoconf2.13 is needed by autoconf-2.52-3cl

I'll test this.
It can take some time

That's ok
Thanks Tulio you've been a lot of help

Hi caleb,

where did you get the keramik package?
Do you have the link?
I will test it.
tks!

nop I don't have the link
I downloaded it from http://www.kde-look.org
But I can't find where it is exactly

I you want me to, I can send to you via e-mail or licq
just let me know

looked again and here it is

http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=1961

access my profile and send me a message.
I will answer you and then you'll can send me the file.

tks again.

caleb,

I do the test with the 2194-keramik.tar.gz package.
Remove the packages automake and autoconf:

# rpm -e automake
# rpm -e autoconf

download the file:
ftp://ftp.rpmfind.net/linux/engarde/...5-8.noarch.rpm

and install it:

# rpm -ivh automake-1.5-8.noarch.rpm

install the packages XFree86-devel-static, libpng-devel, qt3-devel:

# apt-get update
# apt-get install XFree86-devel-static libpng-devel qt3-devel

in /etc/apt/sources.list let only the line:

rpm ftp://ftp.nl.linux.org/pub/conectiva snapshot/conectiva main extra kde gnome devel

And install the autoconf package:

# apt-get clean
# apt-get update
# apt-get install autoconf

So, run build_keramik.sh

yessssssssssssssssssss it worked !!!!!!!
thanks again Tulio YOU RULEEE !!!!!!!!!

now, can you tell me what happened?
was there a problem with the packages i had, or a bad installation or a bug or something like that?

thanks again Tulio, I really aprecciate your help

caleb,

The problem is not with your installation or a bug, but keramik must have specific packages autoconf and automake.
The automake must be 1.5 version and not exist a official package from conectiva for this version (only 1.4 in Cl8 and 1.6 in snapshot).
The autoconf package must be 2.52 or 2.53 (snapshot)

have fun!
