In the meantime I could compile kdar myself. I removed the following suse 10.3 dar related packages: dar-2.3.4-21 libdar-4-2.3.4-21 libdar-devel-2.3.4-21
Instead of these I installed these dar packages (from the same site that you gave the link to):
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/andrewd18/ openSUSE_10.3/i586/dar-2.2.5-26.1.i586.rpm http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/andrewd18/ openSUSE_10.3/i586/libdar-2.2.5-26.1.i586.rpm http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/andrewd18/ openSUSE_10.3/i586/libdar-devel-2.2.5-26.1.i586.rpm
I got the kdar source files from sourceforge, kdar version 2.0.7 (http://kdar.sourceforge.net).
./configure make make install
all worked flawlessly with these dar packages.
I wanted to keep the dar and libdar versions in openSUSE 10.3 but also use KDar, so I built libdar from the dar-2.2.5 sources, and installed it within my home directory. Then I built kdar-2.0.7 linking to this libdar. But in doing this I encountered a configuration problem. On the command line with the invocation of configure I passed CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS set to the dar-2.2.5 include and lib directories, but configure still complained that it couldn't find libdar, although it was in the lib directory. The only solution I found was to symlink this libdar to /usr/lib (which of course I had to do as root). Then I could build kdar and it works fine. But I assume it should be possible to build and install it completely locally, without becoming root. Does anyone know what I missed?
