Lart_lgpl_2 Error, lart_lgpl_2 error Options

[viper_sw]

I need help!!! ...and I'm very much a newbie...
Running RedHat 9, and trying to install a couple of programs...let's focus on kmyfirewall. During the compile process, I can get past ./configure fine, tells me all configured fine, and to run 'make'. This runs for a period, and then fails with error "/usr/local/ld: cannot find -lart_lgpl_2". I have all the KDE development tools installed.
Have looked on Google for answer, have read bunch of other news boards...the only thing I found to try was to add '--prefix /usr/local/kde' to the make command, but that didn't work out. Any ideas would be appreciated

I've never even heard of a library "art_lgpl_2", what directory was it in when you received that error? (Note: you should be able to scroll up to see it Entering a directory and making). If i were to guess, I would say that it was some sort of aRts library, but i'm pretty sure i've run into every aRts library problem before and i've never seen this one. Google spits back nothing for me. Maybe you can try to find a pre-compiled binary of kmyfirewall? I've had problems installing that application in the past as well.

Okay, I did a little more checking, and it appears to be a libart package for graphics. This may possibly exist in the kdeartwork-dev package, but i'm not completly sure, the only hits I get on google are pretty much for Makefiles .

tnx

Ok...well, the program has changed, but the error is pretty much the same. Here is the last part of the 'make':

mkdir .libs

I also tried the rpm version of this, but it also failed saying it could not find libGLcore.so.1. I did some checking and that is apparently a file needed by NVIDIA video cards for display purposes. Can't figure out how it would need that on my system as I have an ATI card. I did some checking though and found the kdeartwork lib ver3.0.3-3, so I am going to install that, and see if that gets me past this. I will let you know how I make out.
Thanks

Here's some info that I hope will help you. I issued these commands on my Debian GNU/Linux Unstable system:

What I can deduct from this is that the package you will need is called "libart-x.x" and "libart-x.x-dev". That should give you everything you need. I should have checked this the first time I replied.

Here is some additional info in case you're wondering:
