Kopete cannot load any protocol

I updated from Debian Woody (official KDE 3.1.4) to Debian Sarge (it has a mix of KDE 3.1.3 and 3.1.4, mostly 3.1.4) recently. Until that moment I could run perfectly Kopete 0.7.4.
When I did the debian upgrade kpete didn run properly, so I re-configured and re-compiled again. When I run the application, I can see a cached list of contacts, but the upper-right corner does not show any active protocols.
Ok, I went to the configuration box and I saw that the protocols I use (kopete, msn and irc) were all de-selected. I checked them, then applied and I could saw on the console the following data:
[code:1]kdecore (KLibLoader): WARNING: library=kopete_msn: file=/usr/lib/kde3/kopete_msn.la: /usr/lib/kde3/kopete_msn.so: undefined symbol: __ti14KopeteProtocol
kopete: [KopetePlugin* LibraryLoader::loadPlugin(const QString&)] No service implementing the given mimetype and fullfilling the given constraint expression can be found.
kopete: [KopetePlugin* LibraryLoader::loadPlugin(const QString&)] Loading plugin 'msn'failed, KLibLoader reported error:
kopete: /usr/lib/kde3/kopete_msn.so: undefined symbol: __ti14KopeteProtocol
kopete: [void KopeteAccountManager::save()]
[/code:1]
The same text for the other protocols. I checked the presence of that kopete_protocol.la files, and they exist.
The next thing was to configurate my accounts. With all protocols I get this window. Translation:
[code:1]Error when adding an account - Kopete

It was impossible to load protocol "MSN Messenger".[/code:1]
This happens with Kopete 0.7.4&5, I've also tried 0.8RC1 but on the configuration window I cannot see any contents at all.

Thanx in advance :)

PS: I had Kopete 0.7.4 running perfectly before Woody->Sarge upgrading

remove kopete, and recompile it - there are probably problems with the new libraries.

I fact I did that with 0.7.4/5 and latest 0.8 (RC1 I think). No luck. I compiled them using GCC 3.2 & 3.3 (from Debian Sarge), I tried to use 2.95 but the configure script complained about some data assumptions.
What could I try next? The strange thing is that all of them compiles perfectly. But 0.7x cannot load the protocol libs because of that unresolved symbols, and with 0.8RC1 I cannot get any UI dialog to work.

Thanx in advance ;D

Are you compiling with the proper kde prefix? Do a 'which konqueror' to be sure of your prefix, then add the result to ./configure --prefix=***
