Hi,
I hope this is the correct place for a newbie-ish question like this
Following a discussion on the NetworkManager mailing list, I want to try
knetworkmanager from
Sadly, I am embarrassed to admit I have never used KDE svn , so not sure what
to do. The instructions I got where
svn co
and then just the usual
/configure
make
make install
however, there is clearly some step missing in this, as the checked out
directory does not have a ./configure. I played a bit with autoconf, nothing
worked.
Searching around on the KDE SVN web pages I came to realise its not that
simple, and I probably have to check out other things as well ? But I
haven't managed to figure out quite what.
So, can someone give me a newbie guide to the step to get this going

I am not an expert, but I guess you forgot to do "make -f Makefile.cvs".
BTW. It should be described on:

Hi,

It should be in main directory of module (for example
"kdebase/Makefile.cvs").

Maybe I wasn't clear. There is no Makefile.cvs ANYWHERE in the directory
structure I checked out for knetworkmanager. I thought maybe it was a problem
with this package, so following the instructions on
I checked out

svn co

and, low and behold, that package does have a Makefile.cvs.

So, I guess knetworkmanager is screwed in svn or is there something I can do
to get it ?

Chris

Where is this file ? I don't have one. So clearly I am still missing a step ?

Hmm. I've spent some time looking at those pages, and to be frank they are far
from clear.

Not quite, knetworkmanager is not a module on its own, but kdereview is. So
checkout the kdereview dir
$svn co -N
then
$svn up kdereview/knetworkmanager

Additionally you need the admin dir with the build system, should be linked in
as svn::externals property to kdereview. Problem seems to be that one cannot
checkout an external purely, so _instead_ of the previous you have to
checkout the full kdereview* :(
$svn co
Then do
$echo knetworkmanager kdereview/inst-apps
so only knetworkmanager will be built.

Then try
$cd kdereview
$make -f Makefile.cvs
$./configure && make && make install
(All out of memory, so untested)

Good luck :)

* Does anyone know better?

Hi,

Good luck :)

Thanks. First reply I have received that actually helped :)

However, not quite there yet. When I run ./configure I get the message

checking if knetworkmanager should be compiled no

And subsequently make does nothing. I tried a few ./configure options to
enable knetworkmanager, but nothing seems to enable it. Any suggestions ?

cheers Chris

Which does not make the other less, everyone tries his best, and this is
welcome :)

Do
$cat inst-apps
perhaps you missspelled knetworkmanager? Should be the name of the subdir.

Pino's approach to step into the knetworkmanager dir after the "./configure"
and do the "make"s there should work, too, but delete inst-apps before ;)

Duh, no real reason to delete inst-apps here, but it can fool you once you try
to compile another app in kdereview, so better remove it if you don't use it.
