I recall running into that problem a while back. I don't remember what caused the problem. That might have been when I discovered the -DWITH_HAL option defaults to OFF. I set that option to ON and I think then the problems disappeared. The cmake configuration files should automatically detect the dbus-1.0 files. In the tdebase build directory, check the CMakeCache.txt file for lines like this: DBUS_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_STATIC_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_TQT_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-I/opt/trinity/include;-I/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/opt/trinity/include;/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_TQT_STATIC_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-I/opt/trinity/include;-I/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include DBUS_TQT_STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/opt/trinity/include;/opt/trinity/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include HAL_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE;-I/usr/include/hal;-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include HAL_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/usr/include/hal;/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include HAL_STATIC_CFLAGS:INTERNAL=-DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE;-I/usr/include/hal;-I/usr/include/dbus-1.0;-I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include HAL_STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS:INTERNAL=/usr/include/hal;/usr/include/dbus-1.0;/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include Also, FWIW, by any chance are you setting the CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH environment variable? I had all kinds of weird build problems using that variable, which is some kind of oddball carry over in Slackware build scripts from days long past. Oh, I just built everything today in Slackware 13.1 against Qt3. So the package does build. :) Darrell
