Install amarok from Git - error

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

I’m trying to install amarok from git but I keep getting this error:

/home/thomas/Software/kde/src/amarok/src/tooltips/KToolTip.cpp:32:36: error: X11/extensions/shape.h: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/amaroklib.dir/tooltips/KToolTip.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/amaroklib.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I thought libXext provided shape.h but I have both xorg-x11-libXext and xorg-x11-libXext-devel installed.


$ rpm -q xorg-x11-libXext
xorg-x11-libXext-7.4-7.1.i586
$ rpm -q xorg-x11-libXext-devel
xorg-x11-libXext-devel-7.4-7.1.i586

Does someone know what could be the problem?

Thanks

Hi
Install xorg-x11-proto-devel which contains;
/usr/include/X11/extensions/shape.h

@malcolmlewis: you were two minutes faster than me

@tmske
you know how to search for this information?
You can do it with yast it has an option to search which package contains
which file

maybe there is also a zypper command for this but it is such a rare case
for me that I never looked at this possibility

Thanks both for the info, this worked!

I didn’t know yast could search for that and I mostly use zypper, so good to know this.

opps - sorry that does not help you, it will only find the information from
already installed packages (I should have thought about this before)
