QT4/KDE4 prob build piklab 16.

[g8jvm]

Hi
the QT4 version of piklab has just been released , probably too late for anyone to pick up and package for FC17

Untarring the package and running cmake .
I get this, and as its a QT4 based thing I haven't a clue which way forward.

[richard@g8jvm-lap piklab-0.16.0]$ cmake .
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:98 (MESSAGE):
  ERROR: cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake not found in
  /home/richard/.kde/share/apps;/usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share/apps;/usr/share/kde4/apps
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  cmake/Piklab.cmake:28 (find_package)
  CMakeLists.txt:21 (include)

Can anyone make a suggestion what its getting stuck on and action to take

TIA
Richard

I managed to go farther than you. I tried to compile piklab-0.16 in gnome so I installed these

gcc-c++
readline-devel
libusb-devel
kdelibs-devel
qt-devel
cmake

I managed to generate the Makefile, but failed to run "make install". I got this error

~/piklab-0.16.0/src/common/common/global.h:49:28: fatal error: kapplication.h: No such file or directory

kapplication.h exists in /usr/include/kde4/ but I'm not sure how to tell make that it's there. In fact, make failed to find every thing in /usr/include/kde4.

Same problem here piklab-0.16.1, today I tried to update .spec file to make a fedora package, but no luck. Asked on piklab-users mailing list, we will see ;-)


(I'm n00b in fedora, and especially building rpm packages.)

People from #fedora-kde helped me a lot with building rpm packages, and <Kevin_Kofler> looked at sources for build system, and found the problem.

Here is the simple patch which fixes this build

And if you are interested to see new piklab in f17+, here is the bug/rfe I filed.
I tried to play with a .spec file and patches, and it is possible to make a package, maybe it still needs some minor fixes, but it works.
