[KDE/Mac] Trying to compile Kile on MacOS 10.4.11: Failed at apple-gcc42

[Janus]

Hi,

 I am following the "alternative method" to compile kile on MacOS
10.4.11 described in [1]. At some point, it point to follow the
instructions on [2] to compile apple-gcc42 using macports. I've
followed each single step, except for the instruction changing the
cflags, as when I did that, I cannot install apple-gcc42 because I
received an error saying that it is missing the previous flag. So, I
continue without change it. The last I could done was:

 $ sudo port install apple-gcc42

  which ends with this error:

  I will be glad to become a "beta tester" of kile if someone help me
installing it :) I used kile in my previous Linux laptop, and now, I
am using it installed with fink (I use latex a lot), so it will be
really nice to have it natively on my PowerBook.

I also tried with the gcc I have installed
(powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1), but it fails at the
"make" step compiling kile.

Also, I asked in the irc channels kde-mac and kde-devel, but nobody answer.

Rightnow I am compiling the kile version at macports, but I really
want to try the cvs version, if it is possible.

  Cheers and thanks in advance,
      Alejandro
