I have tried that route once on another package(on my home ubuntu system). Its too much weep. I guess I will head on the freenode and bug the xine channel guys. Normally I have seen that asking on specific IRC channels, you get an answer quickly. Meanwhile I think I am getting a phd in building kde. I had to copy the libacl.la to a private dir, change the path to .so for libattr(its in /usr/lib instead of /lib but libattr.la says its in /lib). Then I had to do a sed s:/lib/libattr.la:/private/dir/libattr.la:g on all the kde .la files in my $KDEDIR to build it. Redhat enterprise sure comes with some quirckyness. _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
