Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.91) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc 3.3.3 Gentoo release 6 OS: Linux While compiling kdeartwork-3.3.0_beta1, having run the configure script with --without-arts, the "firesaver" srceensaver won't compile, since it tries to include some arts headers. If the screensaver does actually require arts, then the configure script should simply not compile that particular screen saver.
Same problem with kdeartwork-3.3.0_beta2 (3.2.92). It was also reported here: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58262 It should check with automake if the headers exists + (if they exists) --without-arts
This should now be fixed in HEAD - will backport to 3.3 after 3.3.0 is released
I don't suppose that there is any chance of this getting fixed for the 3.3.0 release? If not, there will be several Gentoo users who get bitten by this, because Portage (the Gentoo packaging system) now provides the option to not use arts with KDE. Thanks for your time so far.
Then it's good Portage doesn't provide a way to kill someone!
Whether the fix is included in 3.3.0 is coolo's decision - however, the fix may be incorporated into Gentoo - but that's a matter of discussion there. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58822
I plan to commit these changes to the 3.3 branch soon unless someone tells me otherwise.
Caleb fixed this in CVS HEAD; Caleb, can you also please backport to BRANCH
