The website
http://arminstraub.de/browse.php?page=programs_kiolocate&lang=en does
not tell where to report the problems. So I thought I would ask on d-u
if other users were able to solve this problem and offer some suggestions.
Download and unpack the file
http://arminstraub.de/downloads/kio-locate/kio-locate_0.4.5.tar.gz change
into the directory that will be created. Now run the command "fakeroot
debian/rules binary" without the "" and it should build the package for you
to install if you have the qt and kde -dev files installed along with
build-essential. The problem you are having is the .deb is the kdelibs is at
version/name kdelibs4c2a on your machine where it is looking for kdelibs4c2
to be installed. I have linked (1) the output of building the package I just
did here if you want to check and see what it will look for if you try too
build it yourself.
