Re: kopete aur installation problem..

Do you have pkgconfig installed?

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

Did you had qt and kdelibs already on your system before trying to build kopete? If not, run:
bash /etc/profile
then rerun makepkg.

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

It starts building here. Check the output for a possible error or post it completely. Maybe there is another error above the qt one. You can also follow the advice to look at the end of config.log

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

I get the exactly same error trying to install ksmoothdock from aur.. And there is no config.log file, or I cant find it.. Obviously some packet is missing and needs to be installed, if there is anyone running kde, please try to compile ksmoothdock from aur, and if it compiles, list your installed packets with pacman -Qs.


Edit
please try ldd if you have it installed:

if you're finding dependencies for a piece of software, try using the 'ldd' command on the binaries and dynamic libraries:ldd /usr/bin/gvim

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

Try "export QTDIR=/opt/qt" before makepkg.

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

I'll second that... "export QTDIR=/opt/qt" fixed my troubles as well. I'll have to remember that when I run across what appears to be a naming inconsistency ("qt" vs "Qt"). I'm still quite new to arch, so little tips like this really come in handy.

Thanks!

Re: kopete aur installation problem..

Thanks for that too. I managed it once but then forgot what I had done.
