I mistakenly sent this message to the trinity-users list. Maybe I need better eyeglasses. Or a new brain. :( I'm revamping my build scripts in preparation for building from GIT. In that effort I am making a last pass at building all 3.5.13 packages as a way to test my build scripts. All packages built previously, some several times. I no longer can build kdemultimedia 3.5.13. My build script for that package is almost unchanged although my master script that runs everything has changed a bit. As far as I can tell, build environment variables remain consistent. I have built kdemultimedia 3.5.13 several times, but the build now always fails hard now with the following: ============================================================= make[4]: Entering directory

Error 2 ============================================================= Checking the build environment shows that the library files have been built: $TMP/kdemultimedia/arts/gui/common/.libs/libartsgui_idl.so Looking at that build log, why is the build process looking in /opt/trinity/lib/ rather than $TMP/kdemultimedia/arts/gui/common/.libs? Do I have an environment variable messed up or missing? I'm guessing something like that has happened because I built kdemultimedia 3.5.13 before. I haven't back ported any new patches. I run this build script in single processing mode (NUMJOBS=-j1). I appreciate any help. Thanks! Darrell
