for the last 2/2 days, i was unable to compile kdebase or kdepim due to problem with kDebug.h. Here's the error on kdebase

[ 86%] Building CXX object workspace/kdm/kfrontend/CMakeFiles/kdm_greet.dir/themer/kdmitem.o

To get it to compile i have change the code in kdmItem.cpp to supress ds = kDebug() and replace ds with a direct use of kDebug() as in this ugly hack

                QDebug ds = kDebug();
                if (!pfx.isEmpty())
                        ds << (qPrintable( pfx ) + 1);
                ds << objectName() << qPrintable( itemType ) << area;
change to :

                if (!pfx.isEmpty())
                        kDebug() << (qPrintable( pfx ) + 1);
                kDebug() << objectName() << qPrintable( itemType ) << area;

After this it compiles OK

Have no clue where the problem is.

For kdepim here is the compile log

/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdepim-9999.4/work/kdepim-9999.4/libkdepim/pluginloaderbase.cpp: In function ‘QDebug debug(bool)’:

/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdepim-9999.4/work/kdepim-9999.4/libkdepim/pluginloaderbase.cpp:40: erreur: expected ‘;’ before ‘if’

To get it compile i change (very ugly i admit) the call to KDebug by a kWarning without the cond parameter. But i have another error in kmdebug.h after this, latter  in kdepim compilation :

3/4 days ago everything compiles fine. I have not change GCC. Could be related to the hardened kernel/user space i use (i change it recently )

Do you need further information ?
