Hi Denis, yes, I tried "./configure --help" but the only relevant options seems to be --prefix and --includedir and I tried both without success ("./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3/ --includedir=/opt/kde3/"). I still get the same error. But don't worry about it. The application is not so important for me. It's just a "would be nice to have" thing. But thanks for your support.
