can you exactly describe howto install this one plz . . .
If you want install it with applet: 1. Download tarball for applet from applet page. 2. Unpack it and change directory to "pytextmonitor". 3. Create build directory and change the current directory to it: mkdir build && cd build 4. Run cmake with needed parameters, such as install prefix: сmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../ 5. Run make: make sudo make install
~/Hämtningar/pytextmonitor-V.1.6.0/build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../ CMake Error: The source directory "/home/vaxx/Hämtningar/pytextmonitor-V.1.6.0" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt. Specify --help for usage, or press the help button on the CMake GUI.
Hmm, what is in the directory "../"? BTW, you don't need build dataengine separately anymore. It will build with widget automatically.
