Hi! I need to compile K3b -best burner in the world- but have this error message while doing ./configure:

checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!


I know since Ubuntu ships Gnome by default there are *many* missing KDE libraries, the X itself is up and running...

Did I miss any special parameter? What I'm doing wrong?

I first tried downloading K3b from repositories but it's in English and I would greatly appreciate I can use it in my home language, Spanish, that's why I need to compile source code of International versio =)

Hope anyone knows to do next !

Best,
Martin

Its a common, mistake: you did not install the needed "*-dev" packages
It's not possible for me to list you what does k3b need, but you could
use the dependences of the official source package by running:
     $ sudo apt-get build-dep k3b
That will fetch all the packages needed by the packaged k3b for your
distribution. May be, the current snapshot will need a bit more, but it
will be easier to fin dout what since you have done most of the job with
the previous command.

Hello again and thank you very much for your kind and quick response.

When I do $ sudo apt-get build-dep k3b system returns:

Leyendo lista de paquetes... Hecho
Creando árbol de dependencias      
Leyendo la información de estado... Hecho
E: Debe poner algunos URIs 'fuente' en su sources.list  (in english: You must add some source URI(URL)s in your sources.list)


I know sources.list file and I edit it every time I need to add a new repository but this time I'm not sure why this error is related with repositories.

Also, as I stated in my original message I'm having this error while trying to ./configure the International 1.05 version:

" checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X libraries. Please check your installation and add the correct paths! "

Other apps just compile ok so I'm totally lost with this one, may be it's related to KDE missing libs?

Thank you for any help and feedback you can give me =)

Best,
Martin Cigorraga

uncomment the lines starting with "deb-src"

Because binary packages list and source package list are separated.

The error message is clear about what the ./configure script does not find.
