bah, this problem is really driving me nuts!

i was impatient during the install and decided to go ahead and use the binary for kde... so i finally decide it's time to update the system by emerge world, and here's what happens:

during any kde compile (besides those that worked previously... those updated fine, mostly talking about kdemultimedia and kdeartwork) -- it will get to ./configure and then at the bottom says:

Quote:

checking for KDE... libraries /usr/kde/3.2/lib, headers /usr/kde/3.2/include
checking if UIC has KDE plugins available... no
configure: error: you need to install kdelibs first.

!!! ERROR: kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.2.2-r1 failed.
!!! Function kde_src_compile, line 118, Exitcode 1
!!! died running ./configure, kde_src_compile:configure


someone suggested fix_libtool_files.sh -- this yeilded no results (however, i guessed on usage... so i may just not have been using it right). another suggested revdep-rebuild, this didn't work either.

i have done emerge sync, and i've used one version under this in kdelibs. when i tried the older version of kdelibs, it didn't complain during configure, but during compile it tried going for a file that wasn't there.

could this possibly be a bug in the e-build(s)? i really have no idea. any help is strongly appreciated though.

Code:
# emerge kde-base/kdelibs-3.2.1
to re-emerge kdelibs. then proceed as normal.

i had re-emerged it... multiple times. downloading something in windows now though, but i will try again later i suppose...

that didn't seem to help at all though.

if you are sure you have it, and it is installed sucessfully, you can do a
Code:
# emerge --inject kde-base/kdelibs-3.2.1

to get rid of the dependency.

There's a lot of threads with this same error: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=50092&highlight=error+install+kdelibs+first
is probably the best.

The error is with configure, not portage so that won't fix anything.
