Hi,
I have KMyMoney2 installed on my Fedora 8 machine and wish to install the Calendar Plug-in.
To do so I need the libical headers which means that as well as the subject tarball I also need the libical-devel-0.43.tar.gz tarball.
Unfortunately after hours of Googling I cannot find the devel tarball.
Can anybody point me in the right direction for the devel tarball?
Or better still, will the RPM packages for Fedora 9 install under Fedora 8? The Fedora 8 RPM packages are not of a high enough release. KMyMoney2 need libical-0.33 or higher.

There is no such tarball. libical-0.43.tar.gz will include the devel stuff after you compile and install it. There is however a libical-devel RPM:

Hi Patrick,
Thank you.
Seeing the libical-0.43.tar.gz tarball contains the devel stuff is great.

Fedora 8 is no longer supported. Please upgrade to at least Fedora 10 (don't bother going to 9, it's less than 2 weeks from EOL).

Hi Kevin,
Yes, I know, and you are correct but I sorta like F8. It's rock solid on my desktop. I have Fedora 10 on my laptop and I don't like it :-)
Sound, as always, doesn't work on F10 (or F9 for that matter) while it does on my F8 box for example. My F8 isn't broke so I'm not fixing it :-)

Your call of course, but the trouble with using unsupported Fedora versions is that they are, uh, unsupported. Meaning e.g. that any security problems will *not* be fixed.
So you may think it's not broken when in fact it is.

Hi Patrick,
You are quite correct, I cannot argue with your point but I kept upgrading my laptop, F8 --> F9 --> F10 and I am not impressed with either F9 or F10. I am currently waiting to see what F11 will be like. When the Linux Magazine DVD with Fedora 11 arrives in my mail box I will upgrade my laptop and assess it. Hopefully it will be an improvement on it's two predecessors particularly with regard to sound and video.
I use my desktop system to accomplish work on, not to keep upgrading every six months for no real improvement in functionality and consequently having to re-configure everything on the system each time, so, if it ain't broke, (read; keeps doing all that I want) I wont upgrade. :-)
