Can someone help me get a theme installed in KDE? 1

[jshurst]

I'm trying to install the baghira theme from kde-look.org (I'm using kubuntu)

I downloaded the .bz2 file and extracted it.

I then go the the /baghira-release folder and type ./configure and I get the following.

jshurst@kubuntu:~/themes/baghira-release$ ./configure
./configure: line 88: conf8297.sh: Permission denied
./configure: line 89: conf8297.sh: Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `conf8297.sh': No such file or directory
./configure: line 201: conf8297.file: Permission denied
./configure: line 1197: config.log: Permission denied

So, I used sudo. And I get this.

hecking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for -p flag to install... yes
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... mawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... no
checking for kde-config... /usr/bin/kde-config
checking where to install... /usr (as returned by kde-config)
checking for style of include used by make... none
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl... no
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details.

Then if I type "Make" it says that the "command not found."

Can anyone tell me what is wrong here?

Thanks

Well, as the error messages suggest, you need to install a compiler. Ubuntu does not include any development packages in the default installation, so you'll need to fire up synaptic or adept and install the 'build-essential' package to get GCC and make. You will probably also need to install the kdebase-dev and/or kdelibs4-dev packages to get the KDE headers, which a KDE theme will no doubt need.

Awesome. Thanks for the info. It was more of a general question, as that's what I thought. I just didn't know what i needed. As a side note I did get the theme installed using a .deb package, but thought this would cause more issues in the future.

Thanks,
