Peter, Here's what I get with debugging turned on:

Reaping losing child 0x00336e40 PID 11509 make: *** [align.o] Error 1 Removing child 0x00336e40 PID 11509 from chain. [Kevin-Walzers-Computer:~/Desktop/scribus-1.1.4] kevinwal% Pretty much the same as before. I've been getting this consistently lately. It's a QT bug, I think, and the .moc errors seem to be elusive--there's not much on the net about them. This was the result of actually trying to use qmake directly to generate the makefile (qmake -project -macx, since I'm trying to build on OS X 10.3), but I have been getting the same results regardless of whether I do this or use the makefile already in the tarball (./configure then make)--either way the build dies when I get to the align.moc file error. I am not a QT expert so I don't know how to address this. I *am* making progress, at least a little. Benjamin Reed and the other folks who are getting KDE apps ported to run natively on the Mac have been helpful; the supporting libraries they have provided seem to take care of a lot of the problems I was running into, especially with libart (just adding ~/kde/bin to my PATH seems to have taken care of that). The next big obstacle which I've run into here and there is X11 dependencies; Martin Costabel has said this may be a huge issue in getting Scribus to run natively on the Mac. The KDE-Darwin folks have developed workarounds for that in their code (a lot of if-def stuff that I don't fully understand), and I'm asking them for assistance in learning how to do this. I'll keep trying. I'm not as expert as the folks on the Scribus team (my programming skills are pretty much limited to "hello world!") but I *do* have a Mac, and I want to see this build! I've griped about it before, so here's where I take up the open source challenge--jump in and get my hands dirty!
