I have kdevelop3 package installed in my "openSuSE 10.2". I'm an emacs 
user, never tried to use kdevelop. But I can start now...

The kdegames (kde) has a version 3.5.5. The source code package is from 
web. It (kdegames) was sucessfully compiled by configure-->make-->"make 
install". However, when I try to insert a very simple "printf" in 
libksirtet/common/main.h, and recomplile. The compiler reports some link 
errors, For example

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
board.o: In function `KSBoard::start(GTInitData const&)':
board.cpp:(.text+0x32d): undefined reference to `Board::start(GTInitData 
const&)'
board.o: In function `KSBoard::qt_property(int, int, QVariant*)':
board.cpp:(.text+0x36e): undefined reference to `Board::qt_property(int, 
int, QVariant*)'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you know how to solve this problem?

I think GPL should not be a problem. It should be confirmed by my boss 
tomorrow...
