Installing the old version of kile (2.1.3) in Ubuntu 18.04

Post by Protágoras »

Hello everybody!

I tried installing the old version of kile (2.1.3) in ubuntu 18.04, because every time Ubuntu is updated, the beta version gets install by default. I really don't like the version beta-2 of kile because it doesn't have a correct orthographic dictionary package and the IDE is don't good.

So I downloaded the package .tar from the kile website following the instructions, the problem is that it requires to install KDE 4.4 and shows the following error message:

Code: Select all

DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/kile-install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug"

    -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
    See also "/kile-install/kile-2.1.3/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

I appreciate if anyone could help me installing KDE-4.4 or tell me how to install the old version the kile.

Thanks!!

This is more of an Ubuntu question, rather than LaTeX.

I guess you will have more luck on askubuntu.com.
Please crosslink your questions.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
