Hello

I'm a linux newbie and I want to install kdevelop on debian. I read the
INSTALL file, ran the ./configure script and got something like:

-----------
checking for libz... configure: error: not found.
Possibly configure picks up an outdated version
installed by XFree86. Remove it from your system.

Check your installation and look into config.log
-----------

After running the script, I can't do "make", 'cause there's not
makefile. Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot

Dan

P.s. I want to use kdevelop for my C++ projects. Is there any better C++
IDE for Linux?

apt-get install kdevelop
;) You might want to check out apt-get.org though.

Do you have the -dev packages installed? And what version of Debian are you
running btw?

Why don't you tell us what you found there?

Haven't seen one yet, but kdevelop is just a tool. There are cases where it
is proper and cases where it is not.
