Description David Carlos Manuelda 2006-09-08 20:39:47 UTC 
In configure step of some programs I can see this:

configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: linux/if_ppp.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists.  ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##

I didn't know if I should report or not and I decided to say something, if it's not important, please close and forgive me :)

If you really want, report this upstream, but it's just an artifact due to kdenetwork module where kopete started. Also, kopete does not use if_ppp.h anymore at all.
And when autoconf will finally change behaviour, we most likely be at KDE4 with CMake, and thus the warning is harmless.
