hello,

error when compiling kde3.5 with use of latest konstruct (got it from web today) on redhat9 i686. I looked manually for 'libattr.la' but cannot find it. Some suggestions?

seems that the distribution is broken since KDE 3.4.92, bug #:
Bug 114720: libattr.la error during compilation

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114720

Who can help? Wich version of libattr.la should I use? I found an existing in /usr/lib from year 2003?!

found the solution also in the KDE Bug Tracking System:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116420

here for short:

*The solution*--------------------------------------------
[root at red kde]# ls /lib | grep libattr
libattr.so
libattr.so.1
libattr.so.1.1.0
[root at red kde]# ls /usr/lib | grep libattr
libattr.a
libattr.la
libattr.so
[root at red kde]# ln -s /usr/lib/libattr.la /lib/libattr.la

it WORKS! thanks for reading - cheers rene
