I\'m trying to compile amarok 1.3 on Manrake 10.2, and I get the following error: Any help appreciated!

If you paid any attention to the requirements, you would see a dependency of KDE 3.3...

Time to update your distro/kde!

OK, point taken.

But to ask a stupid question, shouldn\'t the ./configure have failed?

Its possible that you have KDE 3.3, but using a buggy compiler.

Well, it turns out I actually did have kdelibs 3.3.

However, the original ones supplied with Mandrake 10.2 are buggy. After updating them, all is now well.

Does this mean that amarok 1.3 cannot be built on kde 3.3 in Mandrake 10.1/10.2 without \"repairing\" kdelibs? Won\'t a binary compiled on a \"repaired\" kde run on an \"unrepaired\" kde?

Yes.

That might work.
