Compiling ver 0.5.2 on Linux failed!
 

Hi! I am running MDK8.2, gcc 2.96, KDE3/Qt3.0.4

I downloaded the latest ver 0.5.2, type

./configure (no errors)

make (it bombs out with the following errors)

Taken from config.log
--------------------------------------
configure: failed program was:
#line 1630 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/param.h>
int main() {

#if BYTE_ORDER != BIG_ENDIAN
not big endian
#endif
; return 0; }

configure: failed program was:
#line 1794 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <sys/int_types.h>

What happen? I am lost and I can't find any int_types.h file on my system. Anyone can help?

Thanks

At least you got to parse the error, my situation is similar, ie: Mandrake cooker 8.2, but now gcc 3.1, quetella 5.3, it locks my system up so badly that I have to actually POWER OFF!

you must generate a new configure script for 8.2, a lot of things are having problems with the new mandrake, and they changed around a lot of libraries. Make sure you installed the development libraries for mdk also, and/or hope someone comes out with a RPM.

Maybe QT is a huge resource hogger when compiling.
I am using Debian and didn't have a swap file or partition and the compiler was dying even when I quit KDE and compiled without the overhead of a GUI. It was choking on Qtella.cpp, maybe because the constructor is 2000 lines long!! I am new to QT and C++ (been programming C for 15 years) and was amazed to see the compiled program is something like 13MB compared to say Gtk_Gnutella which is about 950k.
