(Newbie Alert) KMymoney refuses to run

Hello,
I installed kmymoney2 (0.8.9-1), but it refuses to run:

buzz ~  $  kmymoney
kmymoney: error while loading shared libraries: libkabc.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such fileor directory

Moreover, its .desktop file is being installed into /opt and does not appear under kde's menu.

Could anyone help me, please?

I see version 0.8.9-2 in the community repo. Make sure you're up-to-date and that you have kdelibs3 properly installed (pacman -Syu; pacman -S kdelibs3).

That's quite odd, I did pacman -Syu, but I still see kmymoney2-0.8.9-1.

Just in case:

root /home/buzz #  uname -a
Linux buzz 2.6.26-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 26 20:53:58 UTC 2008 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

Welcome to the forums rbaprado.

0.8.9-1 is showing in the 64 bit repos here; 0.8.9-2 is showing in the 32 bit. Do you know ABS yet rbaprado? If not, it's a really easy way to build Arch packages:

Interesting, only i686 has -2.

Rebuild it yourself using ABS, if it works after rebuilding, send a notice to its maintainer (swiergot).

No good:

checking for dcopidl... /opt/kde/bin/dcopidl
checking for dcopidl2cpp... /opt/kde/bin/dcopidl2cpp
checking for mcopidl... not found
configure: error: The important program mcopidl was not found!
Please check whether you installed aRts correctly or use
--without-arts to compile without aRts support (this will remove functionality).

make: *** Nenhum alvo indicado e nenhum arquivo make encontrado.  Pare.

I managed to compile it with --without-arts, but got 0.8.9-1 again :-(

You just need to bump the 'pkgrel' line in the PKGBUILD file. When you do this, just bump it to the version that you're looking for so that future upgrades will overwrite the file.

pkgname=kmymoney2
pkgver=0.8.9
pkgrel=2

Oh yeah, mcopidl is in KDE-libs somewhere. I don't have KDE installed so I can't tell you where.
