kmldonkey seems to have alot (26?) includes of qstring.h, so to me this doesn't looks like a bug in libtool but rather in your package not linking to all the libraries it should be. It just used to work, which is not an excuse for not having a build dependency on it or linking to it. > Both libkdeui and libkio reference (as shown by ldd) libqt-mt (which > I suppose is where these symbols should be). So you probably should add a build dependency to libqt3-mt-dev, and add a -lqt-mt > The error messages in the rekall build are of the sort > > .../rekall-2.2.3-2/db/mysql/kb_mysql.cpp:595: undefined reference to > `i18n(char const*)' Which is defined in /usr/include/kde/klocale.h, so that would be part of kdelibs, and seems you need to link to -lkdecore for that, which you don't seem to link atleast for that.

I'm not sure many people have actually tried to get things right, since it "just works". I hope more people actually look at their packages, and maybe ask for help if they can't figure it out themself. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
