Bug report: compiling kdemultimedia 3.4.1 on x86_64

[Carlos Leonhard Woelz]

Hi Andrew,

I *think* the most apropriate list for this message is the
kde-multimedia list. I am forwarding to it. Compile problems are not in
bugzilla because they are usually fixed very quickly. If the problems
persist, you should simply mail the most appropriate list, or kde-devel
if you can't find a more specialized devel list.

Cheers,

Carlos Woelz
