Silly me thought since nothing else was removed that all the dependencies would be there for me when I compiled. But I guess this error: "checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.3 and < 4.0) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation! For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log." IS the message I receive when compiling. What do I need to install to have a successful compile on this Gnome-based Ubuntu. I can tell you that I did try the qt3-dev-tools without success. Also: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done linux-headers-2.6.17-10-generic is already the newest version. Help please. I really would like 1.4.5... On a side note... I installed libmtp-dev and libmtp. This will make Amarok 1.4.5 (when it is finally compiled and installed) play nicely with Creative players and other MTP devices, right? At least theoretically...

I now got past QT! But... checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` is the prefix i am using. i am sure it is not correct. Sorry, this is my first time really building something and that is the command the Amarok HowTO told me to use. I guess it is geared towards KDE desktops. What prefix should I use?

I eventually got everything peachy with the help of the IRC channel. It is running fine now but I do have a few issues with it which I will post in another thread.

I eventually got everything peachy with the help of the IRC channel. Any chance you could say what you did? I have never been able to compile Amarok on Ubuntu. I get the libqt-mt error, despite the fact that this is installed (with threading support).
