Hello, I am trying to build kdebase-workspace 4.4.5 on Lucid but i'm stuck. When i try to build it i get the following error :

I couldn't find anything about it. The code can be seen here :
(full source : http://kdebase-workspace.sourcearchive. ... ource.html )

Code: Select all

ifndef __RANDROUTPUT_H__
#define __RANDROUTPUT_H__

#include <QObject>
#include <QString>
#include <QRect>

#include "randr.h"
#include "randrmode.h"

class QAction;
class KConfig;
     
/** Class representing an RROutput identifier. This class is used
 * to control a particular output's configuration (i.e., the mode or
 * refresh rate of a DVI-I port, or the resolution of a VGA port). */
00036 class RandROutput : public QObject
{
      Q_OBJECT

public:
      RandROutput(RandRScreen *parent, RROutput id);
      ~RandROutput();
     
      /** Returns the internal RANDR identifier for a particular output. */
      RROutput id() const;
     
      /** Return the screen that this output belongs to. */
      RandRScreen *screen() const;
     
      void loadSettings(bool notify = false);
     
      /** Handle an event from RANDR signifying a change in this output's
       * configuration. */
      void handleEvent(XRROutputChangeNotifyEvent *event);
      void handlePropertyEvent(XRROutputPropertyNotifyEvent *event);

RandROutput(RandRScreen *parent, RROutput id);

I've also tried to include "randrscreen.h" but without luck!

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.

Try adding an include for the header containing RandRCrtc just below the #define.

Thanks but it didn't work .

I don't know if it's relevant, but i'm compiling in a VM using virtualbox 4.0 running on natty.

I've added #include "randrcrtc.h" right after the define, but now it just gives me more errors.

Also I tried to build right after installing Lucid again without success, the same error is shown.

Anybody has any other suggestion? Can i provide any other relevant info?

Thanks in advance.

Can you please check to see if you have all the needed X development packages installed?

About the packages, to install them I have run "apt-get build-dep kdebase-workspace", that's the only way i know to find out the needed packages!

These are the relevant ones that "dpkg -l" lists for me as currently installed! Is there any other way to find out if I need more of them?

Thanks for your help!

I would suggest checking to see if your distribution has any custom patches applied which allow KDE 4.4.5 to be compiled.
