I install Xorg in /usr/X11 so I haven't experienced this issue. Maybe a note should be added. > I also noted that a couple of the kde modules look for PyQt and PyKDE > and they are not currently mentioned. Yes, you're right, they should be mentioned as an optional dep. for at least kde-workspace and kdeplasma-addons.

If you check out your .xsession-errors file, it will contain alot of them. The warning message is fixed in Kde 5. Considering the warning message is normally not visible to the user, I don't think we need to add this patch to the book. > but if kde-4.8.4 is due out next month, it is probably fixed there. Kde-4.8.4 is already out, I just haven't got around to updating the book. The warning message is not fixed in this release. Kde-4.9 will be out 1st of August. - Ragnar - -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
