Hi everyone out there, Please help me!! I successfully run ./configure, but when I run "make", I always end up with the following error!

make[3]: *** [index.cache.bz2] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/kopete-0.10.1/doc/fr'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/kopete-0.10.1/doc'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/kopete-0.10.1'

RE: Error making Kopete

The error is printed above this lines. Can you post more lines of the error message?

It is not neccesairy to compile programs as root. You can download, unpack, ./configure and make the program as normal user. Only for installing, you need to be root. That can also be done easily in a command line with the

Source code

1
su -c "make install"
command.

RE: Error making Kopete

This is caused by a missing entity. Entities are used in documentation to change email adresses of a person by editing one line instead of editing that line in all documentation a person had written (or translated). In this case, a person who did the French translation is added to the Franch entity, but that file isn't updated in your setup.

Entities are part of kdelibs. What should work is updating kdelibs to kde 3.4.1.

Another option is only make Kopete, not the docs. For that, press

Source code

1
cd kopete
after

Source code

1
./configure
and then press

Source code

1
2
make
make install
(if loggeed in as root), or

Source code

1
2
make
su -c "make install"
(if logged in as user).

What possible also works is updating the entity file from subversion. First, you need the file. You can get is from http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.4/k…r/user.entities .
After that, set that file in $KDEDIR/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/fr/user.entities. Don't forget to backup the file you replace. I haven't tried it, this is just a guess that might work.
