problem compiling KDE

[Pollywog <pollywog@shadypond.com>]

I was told that my mimelnk stuff should be in a certain place, but it was not
there and although I seemed to not have any problems because of this, I went
about removing all the Debian KDE 1.1 packages and QT.  I then installed QT
from source and then installed kdelibs and kdesupport from source.  When I
tried to install kdebase from source (Debian Slink system) I got an error
about not finding net/if.h so I recompiled my kernel and started again with
kdelibs and kdesupport but when I got to kdebase, I got the same error with
net/if.h.

Why can I not install KDE on Slink from source?

I have reinstalled all the KDE packages from debs, so at least I have
something working.  Perhaps Debian has some way of handling KDE mime types and
I never had a problem in the first place?  Still, I should be able to install
from source but I can't.  I did not have this problem with KDE 1.0 on
OpenLinux.

thanks
