Which is odd, since I don't have it installed.Quote:

Eco2Geek, made the physical changes in both the .cpp and .h files, tried, and it failed with the same error, at the same place... So....
Stephen, decided to go with your suggestion, and did an apt-get install of libxft-dev - unfortunately, I don't think things got any better, the install required upgrading one package, removal of another, and a host of four newly installed, during the unpacking, it died... Output follows:
I have reason to believe I am (now) going to start backing up my system, the last time I saw this from apt-get, it required me to install a new system on a freshly "gutted" one...Code:root@Polaris:~# apt-get -u install libxft-dev

root@Polaris:~#
Any ideas on resolution, sheesh, I can't believe all of this "sh*t" is happening just to get a thumbnail viewer in Konq ????
HELP
Cuddles
Considering the length of this thread, and the fact that it has gotten worse, and that I also was "piggy-back" 'ing this topic -=-
I have moved my "thread" within this topic, to a new topic -=- "wmfthumbnail issues (cont)"
To save this thread from going even longer, and that it should have been on its own thread, the new topic should be used for responses. I think that is a better "example" than to continue on a "borrowed" thread.
Thank you,
Cuddles
