UNIX for Beginners Q & A

Hello. I am currently trying to compile kde-baseapps.

I issue this command:

which returns

So I need this ECM stuff.

I found this: extra-cmake-modules.git - Extra modules and scripts for CMake.. When I click in the corresponding link in the column, I receive this:

This also happens when I click any link in this column that starts with "tag".

So what I shall do now? Thanks for the help.

According to that page, you can clone that repo with this command:

git://anongit.kde.org/extra-cmake-modules.git

Try that and let us know if it worked.

Naturally, you need to have git installed on your system.

Ok, I clone it. Unpacked it, entered the dir, created a dir called "temp", entered temp and executed:

/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Cmake-2.8.12.2/bin/cmake ..

It printed a lot of things on the terminal, whose last lines were:

-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /home/leopoldo/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/extra-cmake-modules/Temp

I typed

export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/extra-cmake-modules/Temp/

where

ECMConfig.cmake

it is in

Then typed:

/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Cmake-2.8.12.2/bin/cmake /media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/kde-baseapps/temp/..

and received:

  By not providing "FindKF5.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
  asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "KF5", but
  CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "KF5" with any of
  the following names:

    KF5Config.cmake
    kf5-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "KF5" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "KF5_DIR"
  to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "KF5" provides a
  separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.


 -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

So I need another KDE stuff installed. Something called KF5?
