Greetings:
I have a completely updated Fedora 11 beta install, I am trying to use cmake to compile the new k3b-1.65.0-alpha1.tar.bz2, and it gives me this error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- The following OPTIONAL dependencies could NOT be found. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Polkit-Qt < http://api.kde.org/kdesupport-api/kdesupport-apidocs/polkit-qt/html%3E Needed for K3bSetup to acquire administrator privileges. Version >= 0.9.2 is required.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it something wrong with Fedora or is it a KDE problem?
Sincerely, Rob

1. polkit-qt is currently pending review: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497192 2. k3b can be built with -DK3B_BUILD_K3BSETUP=OFF to avoid the polkit-qt dependency. See also: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/k3b/devel/k3b.spec

And that's how it should ALWAYS be built in Fedora. We always disabled K3bSetup. K3b has no business running stuff as root. It is explicitly NOT needed to be root for our burning tools (cdrtools (wodim etc.), cdrdao, dvd+rw-tools (growisofs) etc.) to work. If burning fails with the tools run as a regular user, file bugs against the affected tools.

Sincerely, Rob --
Try # yum install Polkit-Qt
I also tried to compile it, but it cannot find the programs in the standard places, so I gave up. All the programs are there, but the configure program or cmake cannot find them :(
