Description Roman Makurin 2005-10-15 23:05:13 UTC 
Version:           3.4.3 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.13-gentoo-r4

When I`m trying to build kdebase-3.4.3 with new modular xorg7rc0 on my gentoo it gives me an error about missing (xmkmf)imake:

Make sure you have all necessary X development packages installed.
On some systems a missing /lib/cpp symlink is at fault.

!!! ERROR: kde-base/kdebase-3.4.3 failed.

Comment 1 Thiago Macieira 2005-10-16 05:57:57 UTC 
Ossi: I think the only thing that requires xmkmf is kdm, so can you take a look?
Comment 2 Oswald Buddenhagen 2005-10-16 08:45:36 UTC 
yes, known one ... somebody wanted to provide the pkg-config based configure snippet. ;)
fwiw, i'm wondering why xmkmf is installed when it doesn't work anyway ...
Comment 3 Stephan Kulow 2005-10-16 09:34:31 UTC 
assuming it outputs "don't use me, I'm dead" :)

Created attachment 13056 [details]
kdm-no-imake.patch

The attached patch is a minimal approach to solve this issue.
It lets the user specify the location of the X binaries and libraries through
--with-x-libraries-dir and --with-x-binaries-dir switches and defaults to the
values detected during the standard configure process (why redoing a check that
was already done anyway? :).

wontfix, as far as kde3 is concerned.
fixed in kde4.
