Description Marc 2003-02-19 10:16:24 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.1 
OS:          Solaris

The package kdebindings-3.1 requires the tool "csant" to compile.
This dependency is not listed in the dependency list on the KDE homepage.
After a lot of searching around, I found that it is probably in GNU dotgnu-pnet, but I still don't know which packages I have to install: only pnet or only pnetlib or both?

Please either 
 - eliminate the dependency or 
 - document it.

> Where or how do we list this dependency? 
 
http://promo.kde.org/kde_reqs.php . To have the already published KDE 3.1 req list 
changed, you will I guess have to mail Andreas Pour.

Comment 2 Adam Treat 2003-03-08 18:26:05 UTC

When you build kdebindings the configure script checks for the presence of these tools 
and disables the Qt# build if it is not found.  This is the same as the java bindings 
requiring a Java tools package.  Does the KDE3.1 requirements include a java 
dependency? 
 
I will look at the configure script and make sure it is working correctly.

Ok, it lists the Java tools as recommended.  I will contact Andreas to get the pnet and 
mono tools recommended ;) 
 
Sorry about that.

Fixed on the requirements page.
