Version: Gideon CVS (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc 3.2.3 OS: Linux kdevelop will not compile. There is a linker error in r++ in kdevelop/languages/cpp. I have db-4 installed, along with all the sources, as I am running Gentoo. Here is the compiler output: /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --mode=link --tag=CXX g++ -DAST_DEBUG -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -fno-builtin -g3 -fno-inline -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -o r++ -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/qt/qt-copy/lib -L/usr/kde/cvs/lib main.o libkdevcppsupport.la ../../lib/catalog/libkdevcatalog.la ../../lib/cppparser/libkdevcppparser.la *** Warning: Linking the executable r++ against the loadable module *** libkdevcppsupport.so is not portable! main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE4openERK7QString+0x69): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::open(QString const&)': /usr/qt/qt-copy/include/qvaluelist.h:269: undefined reference to `db_create_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE4openERK7QString+0x7d): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::open(QString const&)': /usr/kde/cvs/include/kdebug.h:189: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE4openERK7QString+0x18e): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::open(QString const&)': ../../lib/catalog/gcatalog.tcc:189: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE4openERK7QString+0x266): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::open(QString const&)': /home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages/cpp/main.cpp:189: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE8addIndexERK8QCString+0xb1): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::addIndex(QCString const&)': /home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages/cpp/main.cpp:52: undefined reference to `db_create_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE8addIndexERK8QCString+0xc5):/home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages/cpp/main.cpp:53: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE8addIndexERK8QCString+0x32c): In function `GCatalog<Tag>::addIndex(QCString const&)': ../../lib/catalog/gcatalog.tcc:114: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' main.o(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN8GCatalogI3TagE8addIndexERK8QCString+0x409):../../lib/catalog/gcatalog.tcc:119: undefined reference to `db_strerror_4000' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: *** [r++] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages/cpp' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages/cpp' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop/languages' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/craig/src/kdecvs/kdevelop' make: *** [all] Error 2
Please report compilation errors on kdevelop-devel@kde.org mailing list: do not use bugs.kde.org for this. BTW, unresolved symbols mean that you are linking objects which have been compiled with different compilers (gcc), whether kdevelop or db-4: try a make distclean make -f Makefile.cvs && ./configure --prefix=<your-prefix-dir> --with-debug=full && make ... and report success or failure on the mailing list, thanks :-)
