Would a more proper solution be to test the value of the internal cmake variable HAVE_X11_EXTENSIONS_SHAPE_H and when true add the link? Something like this: tde_add_executable( ksnapshot AUTOMOC SOURCES ksnapshotiface.skel main.cpp ksnapshot.cpp regiongrabber.cpp windowgrabber.cpp ksnapshotwidget.ui if( HAVE_X11_EXTENSIONS_SHAPE_H ) LINK tdeprint-shared Xext else LINK tdeprint-shared endif( ) DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR} ) > > PS tde_add_library meaming that you add a target to > Makefile, not to add a library to a target. > > That is what I needed to know. See -- you can teach > an old dog cmake -- it just takes longer :) Is ksnapshot supposed to link against Xext? I don't think so. When I look at my last tdegraphics build log, I see "-lXext" for kuickshow but no other tdegraphics components. The kuickshow CMakeLists.txt does not have a LINK directive for Xext but does have a LINK directive for IMLIB_LIBRARIES, through which kuickshow links to Xext. Looking at the older automake files does not show any ksnapshot linking to Xext or IMLIB_LIBRARIES. Darrell
