Helo...i have a program that i really want to use...but i have problems installing the source:
http://www.justlinux.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=130118
The file is listed in:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3283&package_id=3208&release_id=15756
I would be VERY grateful if someone could package it tp RPM for SuSE 9.1 Pro...or if you'd solve my problem in the first link.
Please...please...please, because i am so desperate...if i do not get help from here...i will cry :P
U guys are my last hope. :confused:

It's source is built for KDE1 (according to the release note: This version requires KDE 1 and will probably be the last to require it instead of KDE 2),
which is not available for Suse 9.1, so I am afraid you are out of luck, unless you can find out if there are CVS releases built for KDE2.

Well...if it's for KDE 1 and 2 then there is no meaning to cry :-/
The author answered that the project has been stalled for 4 years and was only moving at the at the rate of submitted patches :)
The author:
The released kcheat only runs on KDE1. The CVSed kcheat runs on KDE3 last I checked (and if you roll it back a bit, also KDE2), but might need tweaks for newer gcc releases and such. If you fix any compile bugs, please send me a patch so I can add it to CVS.
Ohhhyea...like i would understand anything about source code editing :P
What CVS works on KDE3? Where to get it and how to get it to work?
And he also wrote this:
./configure --help will show the KDE-specific options like specifying the location of KDE includes. --prefix=... is what tells it the default install directory. It might have bitrotted; KDE projects tend to do that quickly. If you fix any compile errors, send me a patch so I can include it.
