edit3: SOLVED
the sources http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/ktorrent/ktorrent_3.3.4+dfsg.1.orig.tar.bz2
miss the GeoIP.c and GeoIP.h in subfolder plugins/infowidgets.

The original sources http://ktorrent.org/downloads/3.3.4/ktorrent-3.3.4.tar.bz2 work like expected, so just use these.

original post below:
I tried to compile ktorrent 3.3.4+dsfg.1 under kubuntu karmic according to the steps given on kdeapps.com,
but when configuring, cmake gives the following output, indicating something is wrong with paths to libgeoip1? I'm a educated noob if you will, but I really couldnt get it to work. Anyone else has encountered something like this, or found a solution?

Code: Select all

CMake Error in plugins/infowidget/CMakeLists.txt:
  Cannot find source file "GeoIP.c".  Tried extensions .c .C .c++ .cc .cpp
  .cxx .m .M .mm .h .hh .h++ .hm .hpp .hxx .in .txx


-- Build files have been written to: /home/dave/Downloads/ktorrent-3.3.4+dfsg.1


Edit:
of course it works if I try to configure and then compile with disabled infowidget support like this:

Code: Select all

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$(kde4-config --prefix) -DENABLE_INFOWIDGET_PLUGIN=false


But thats more a workaround than a solution ^^

Edit2:
Configuring and compiling ktorrent 4.0beta1 on the same machine worked without problems.

It complains about not finding GeoIP.c which should be in plugins/infowidget, it is part of the source.

Is that file there ?

nope, in plugins/infowidget, theres no GeoIP.c, only the geoip folder with the country flags. I thought cmake looks for it in some libgeoip-dev path, after looking into the CMakeLists.txt in plugins/infowidget/ (row 7 and 8 )

edit: I just checked, in ktorrent 4.0beta1 its right where it should be, GeoIP.c and GeoIP.h are in plugins/infowidget/

Download the official source and compile that:

http://ktorrent.org/downloads/3.3.4/kto ... .4.tar.bz2

ok, that was the problem. *note to self, always use the official sources first...*
I had used the sources from http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/ktorrent/ktorrent_3.3.4+dfsg.1.orig.tar.bz2, and they miss the GeoIP.c and GeoIP.h in subfolder plugins/infowidget/.

Well thanks for pointing me to the correct source!
And after noobing around like this, it still feels great when the compiling goes through^^

Of course it is missing. It is one of the reasons for the tarball +dfsg.1 prefix.

There is an option you can pass to cmake to use the installed geoip library (add -DWITH_SYSTEM_GEOIP to the cmake commandline), debian probably compiles with this option.
