I had checked some of the packages before. That's why I was surprised
that you encountered so many errors. My egcs snapshot was about a month
old so I had to upgrade to reproduce the problems. Did you try
kdesupport ? The situation is really bad there. *Lots* of warnings (and
errors which I believe to have fixed today). However the 19990712
behaves somehow strangely. Declarations like fdopen() and gethostname()
seem to be missing although the relevant headers are included. Known
problem ?

In case your cvs update isn't complete or the dir is really missing
simply take `po' out of kdegame's Makfile.

This fix I found required *removing* one const so I'll mail it to Kurt
first.

Fixed.

I've mailed this to Christian Esken. I'm not sure what place needs to be
fixed.

I wonder how this compiled before. I've fixed this and some `const'
errors on my disc but I can't get kodo to work (broken pixmaps?) so I
won't commit my patches yet. Can anyone confirm that the program works
*now* ?

Harri.
