I downloaded kdebase and looked, and it does want hal, dbus and dbus-qt3 to build the hal backend for kioslave. > Not sure how that applies now to the newer D-Bus/HAL.

It's kioslave that uses dbus-qt3 to talk to hal over dbus. Interestingly, Fedora takes the old dbus-qt3 code and patches it onto kdebase. Probably not something we want to get into, though. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
