Description Carlos 2004-10-31 14:54:20 UTC
Version:           1.0b7 (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

I've tried to install akregator in two ways:

1) From the 1.0b7 sources: The /.configure command fails with:
configure: error: The important program makekdewidgets was not found!
Please check whether you installed KDE correctly.

I've checked and I don't have makekdewidgets anywhere. I believe it comes with kdelibs, which I have installed, but it's an updated version I got from linuxpackages.net. I haven't tried to go back to the original version that came with Slackware.

2) From a package found in linuxpackages.net (1.0b6)
Package installs ok, but on starup, akregator pop ups a window saying "Could not find the aKregator part; please check your installation"

So, I'm out of luck. Any ideas?

makekdewidgets is new in KDE 3.3, so you had to upgrade to use beta7.
Unfortunately beta7 needs Qt/KDE 3.3 due to a packaging mistake.
We will fix this, either by fixing the beta7 tarball or by releasing beta8 soon.

If you are not afraid of using the CVS version (which is quite stable and has some nice new features such as navigation buttons in internal browser tabs), you can find 3.2 compliant tarball of current CVS including translation files at http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~f_osterf/akregator

Hi Frank,

Thanks for your answer. The CVS version survived the .configure, but no the "make", but probably for different reasons. I couldn't find a reference to this new error in the bug reports, and I imagine I should open a new bug report??
