Version:           1.5 beta1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I'm trying to compile Koffice 1.5 beta1, using Gentoo's emerge. It fails in the same place every time:

kis_tiff_converter.cc:24:18: lcms.h: No such file or directory

You need to install the lcms library for Krita (and its filters) to compile. Usually the configure check discovers the absence of this library, but that sometimes fails.

In general, compile problems are not bugs and it would be better to report them on the koffice mailinglist or on the #koffice irc channel -- that would get those problems resolved faster.

I have lcms 1.13 installed, I should have said. I haven't been able to find a list of requirements for 1.5 that mentions lcms.

I understand what you're saying about compile bugs -- I'll report them to the mailinglist in the future.
