Uttered Telmo Silva <tsilva@xxxxxxxx>, spake thus: > Anyone knows why this error occurs? Is this a bug? Yes ;-) There is a bug in the autoconf tools provided with this RPM. (At least as far as Fedora is concerned.) It doesn't know how to find the QT libraries; Fedora allows multiple versions of this library, and this RPM just can't find it. Here's a work-around: 1. Get the URL to the source RPM, and: # rpm -Uvh /path/to/kbiff/.src.rpm This copies some files into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES and one file into /usr/src/redhat/SPECS. 2. Replace the kbiff.spec from the distribution with the spec file I've provided below, and type: # cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS # rpmbuild -ba kbiff.spec I just added the "--with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt-3.1" argument to the configure step. 3. Install your new RPM the usual way: # cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 # rpm -Uvh kbiff* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ # These are the only two variables that you need to change Prefix: /opt/kde3 %define qtdir /usr/lib/qt3 Name: kbiff Summary: KBiff -- Mail notification utility Version: 3.7 Release: 1 License: GPL Group: X11/KDE/Internet Source: http://devel-home.kde.org/~granroth/kbiff/kbiff-%{version}.tar.bz2 URL: http://kbiff.granroth.org Packager: Kurt Granroth <granroth@xxxxxxx> BuildRoot: /tmp/kbiff-%{version} %description An "xbiff"-like mail notification utility.
