Nobody here is going to download KDE3 just to find out. You'll have to give a few examples. > You get a lot of errors.

If you change any of the auto* tools, make sure that all auto* generated files are rebuilt before first use. The exact options may depend on the project directory layout, but something along the lines of rm -f config.cache config.h aclocal -I m4 && autoheader && automake && autoconf should work.
