[solved] problem downloading yakuake - v13.37

[f.bluedevil]

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug or problem but in either case; I'm not having any success trying to download yakuake in the last rc for 13.37 (very nice by the way).

Both Sourcery Slackbuild Manager and slapt-src produce the same results:

Code: Select all

yakuake.SlackBuild: line 54: cmake: command not found
fakeroot -- sh yakuake.SlackBuild Failed

yakuake is the last piece I need to make Salix 13.37 my perfect environment.

Suggestions appreciated!

I think you have to install cmake with slapt-get...

[f.bluedevil]

Kerd,

Thanks for the insight. I installed cmake and the install did get further along but unfortunately ended with a new error message:

Code: Select all

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:58 (MESSAGE):

I tried but could not find a kde4-config package and I'm guessing from the rest of the error message that the build package needs to be modified. However, not being a package builder, I can't be positive.

Any ideas as to what the next step should be?

[Duncan_Idaho]

did you install the fakeroot package?

[Kerd]

Try to install kdelibs with slapt-get and than try to insatll yakuake....

[f.bluedevil]

Thanks Duncan and Kerd,

Ok, fakeroot was installed, I installed kdelibs and then installed yakuake successfully ...kinda. However, when I opened the program I got the following message:

yakuake was unable to load the Konsole component. A Konsole installation is required to use yakuake.

I tried using slapt-get to install Konsole but it comes back with no such package. I know Konsole is the terminal application for KDE but it appears that it can't be installed as a stand-alone package. I don't know if there is a way around this, but if the only solution is to install a KDE desktop, I'm not sure I want to go there.

No, no way around it. Yakuake depends on KDE.

[f.bluedevil]

Quick add-on to my last post.

I have installed yakuake on a Gnome desktops before without installing Konsole, so the "Konsole" requirement has me puzzled?

[f.bluedevil]

gapan,

Ok, then Salix stays, Yakuake will have to go.

Just install kdebase and be happy.
