Codegen Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 I'm having problems trying to compile KDE 3.3.2. Whenever I type in ./configure for the arts-1.3.2 package (what I need to compile first), I gert this error checking whether g++ supports -Wnon-virtual-dtor... no checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check See `config.log' for more details. I made sure that I have all the packages needed from the KDE site. T|hanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotRoot Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 did you check the config.log in the directory that you attempted to compile from? If its there you should copy and paste it. But the cpp library fails sanity checking, which points to your C++ compiler. Try to compile with gcc (or reinstall the RPM/recompile it). It could possibly be a problem with the libgcc. Which distro are you using as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 I'm using Mandrake 10.1 I'll check the config.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 IT might helt when I install gcc :pinch: Damn stupidity has been with me a lot this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lechio Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 KDE from source. This tool could help you out... http://developer.kde.org/build/konstruct/ otherwise... good luck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotRoot Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 you could try to Chmod -R 766 home/kyle/KDE-Src/ Otherwise something with the compiler again I'm guessing or you need to redownload the libraries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 ok. I'll try both suggestions when this song is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 what does chmod do anyway? It did something, then gave me a new shell [root@localhost kyle]# chmod -R 766 /home/kyle/KDE-Src/ [root@localhost kyle]# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 chmod assigns permissions, while chown assigns the owner and group of the file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 ...and that'd help me how, exactly? I'm re-running ./configure right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 not sure how he was thinking it would help...but I ust replied to let you know what it was... honestly I've never had a problem installing kde following the guide on kde.org before, so I have no clue how ot help you. kind of seems to me like you're not meeting a dependancy in order to install it, like gcc isn't installed properly or something...

Codegen Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 I re-downloaded the libraries. Taking a lot more time than it was the last time. NO news is good news, ehj? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raid517 Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 why are you compiling KDE from source? why not just use the binaries supplied for you distro? Maybe you just enjoy doing things the hard way? GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codegen Posted December 18, 2004 Author Share Posted December 18, 2004 1) Yes,I do enjoy doing things the hard way and 2) There isn't any binaries for Mandrake 10.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotRoot Posted December 18, 2004 Share Posted December 18, 2004 ...and that'd help me how, exactly?I'm re-running ./configure right now. 585122089[/snapback] I dfidn't think it'd actually fix anything, but it was a longshot, because if permissions weren't set right (like it couldn't read it) then it could cause an error, but it'd probably just tell you that it couldn't read it. Also I've seen if permissions are set to weird settings that it'll output an error that leads you off to think its something else. To be honest it was just a longshot from what I said, and I wasn't really sure what else to do if the libraries in fact aren't corrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codegen Posted December 19, 2004 Author Share Posted December 19, 2004 Is there any particular order I'm supposed to do this in? I followed the instructions to install aRts first and then the libraries after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 You need the libfam-dev package, not sure if it will solve the other errors but it's a start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
