Some packages from KDE won't install:
kde-base/kdenetwork-3.5.9
kde-base/kdeartwork-3.5.9
kde-base/kdeutils-3.5.9-r1
kde-base/kdeadmin
kde-base/kdegraphics
kde-base/kdeaddons

The error message is always the same:
* The die message:
* econf failed

What did I miss ? Any cue ?
Thanks for the help to come

The lines above this message (the last lines from configure). Why did econf
fail?

That's the wrong bit output, it's nothing more than an error alert.

What is needed to help you in any way is the output *before* this, as far back
as the *first* error message.

This means you will have to look at the output and figure some stuff out.
