edit: got past this error, but and compiling, but compiling is ending on errors.. will have to investigate further

I dont want to unecessarily add any packages I dont need as some of the KDE ones are huge, and I've already down 8+ hours of adding packages (200MB.... 256K ADSL here =( ).

Also so far, Ive managed to do everything through synaptic.. Id like to keep it that way if possible.. (apart from the svn get of kdenlive), Ive got the binary of 0.5 running too.

Ubuntu 8.10 AMD 64

here's a copy of the terminal dump:

dan@Dan:/usr/src/kdenlive$ cd kdenlive ; sudo cmake . ;sudo make ; sudo make install

edit: had to add kdelibs4-dev (4:3.5.10-0ubuntu6) (KDE3)

which removed the following..

Removed the following packages:

kdebase-dev

kdelibs5-dev

kdepimlibs5-dev

libkonq5-dev

Athiril: Some points:

- You are running either ubuntu or kubuntu - please let me know which one, and which version. I _think_ you are using 8.04, and there are a very easy path to get it to work, if you can confirm that.

- You need to compile kdenlive for KDE4 - you need some of the kde5 libs. It looks as you are accidently compiling for KDE3. This is a dead end, as that version is no longer supported.

- Please either wait for the release coming out today (unless something goes wrong), or please let me help you use the wizard.
