Hi.
I wanted to have a look at what' happenning to kaffeine (kde4) at the moment, so I downloaded it from

Code: Select all

svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/multimedia/kaffeine


Now when i do cmake src/ in the kaffeine directory, i get this error :

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:29 (kde4_add_executable):
Unknown CMake command "kde4_add_executable".

The full CMakeLists.txt file is this :

Code: Select all

project(kaffeine)

# search packages used by KDE
find_package(KDE4 REQUIRED)
include(KDE4Defaults)

add_definitions(${QT_DEFINITIONS} ${KDE4_DEFINITIONS})
include_directories(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/include ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR} ${KDE4_INCLUDES})

add_subdirectory(deviceactions)
add_subdirectory(icons)
add_subdirectory(src)

macro_optional_add_subdirectory(po)

if(BUILD_TOOLS)
  add_subdirectory(tools)
endif(BUILD_TOOLS)


Please help.... what am i doing wrong? do i need to give additional options to cmake?

Have you installed the KDELibs and Qt development packages?

You need the parent directory «multimedia» to build it. Since you only want to test kaffeine, you can use the following commands to download the least possible:

svn co -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/ex ... multimedia
cd multimedia
svn up kaffeine

and build from the multimedia directory

Yes, i have them. I followed the instructions for arch at http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started ... Arch_Linux
and all of my packages are also up to date.

I have all the stuff needed to build kde.

Uh-oh. Yeah, i did what you said, and I got the multimedia dir with 3 files : cmakelists.txt, configurechecks.cmake, and INSTALL. and the kaffeine dir is also there.

But still i get the same problem.

Yay! thanks dpalacio, it works!!!!
