[Opensync-users] Debian packages with SyncML / Build problems

[Marc B. <ba...@sm...>]

Hi,

I am new on this list, and am trying to get a working opensync/multisync
environment with kdepim and syncml (client) plugins running. I didn't
find the information I was looking for on the website or the mailing
list archive, so I'll describe the problems I ran into (hoping for some
kind assistance, obviously :)) )

The binary debian packages on the website unfortunately do not include
the syncml plugin. Are there any more recent binaries than 0.14 that
would provide both kdepim and syncml plugins ? Or maybe there is even
a Debian repository ? (I googled for it but didn't find any)

Well, in the meantime I got the latest version from svn and tried to
compile it on debian sarge. I get stuck at the very beginning (with
the first package I tried, opensync). I did:

./autogen.sh
ln -s misc/debian .
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

and got the error

[..]
make[3]: Entering directory `/uranyl/scratch/qtek/OpenSync/opensync/wrapper'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'.

make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

Although configure went through fine (I thought).
Any hints or suggestions ?

Thank you very much in advance,
