Kopete 0.7.3 and 0.8b2 Installation problems

Hi,

I wanted to install the SuSE-RPM for kopete 0.7.3. The installation was without any problems, but when I try to create a new account for icq, kopete crashed.
I use SuSE Linux 8.2 with KDE 3.1.1

Then I tried to install kopete 0.8b2. The installation (./configure, make, make install) was without any problems, but I cannot find kopete after the installation. Yust typing "kopete" into the shell didn't work. I have only little experiance with compiling and installation of sources. ;-)

Kopete 0.6.1a (from SuSE 8.2) works without any problems.

So, I hope everyone understand my english. ;-)

Thanks for help,
Kay

To find your installed files, install the tool 'locate' with yast, then type
locate kopete |grep bin
and look up where the binary is installed.

Maybe you can start kopete 0.8.0beta2 in this way, maybe it helps you to fix some other problems.

Run these 2 commands before configure-ing:

sed -i "s/kde_qtsubver=2/kde_qtsubver=1/" configure
rm -fr autom4te.cache
