Install Cervisia on RHEL4

[The Hog]

Hi,

I have a development RHEL4 server. It does not have any X server, desktop or
windowmanager installed. Development is being done remotely via SSH (only).
The X libraries have been installed and graphical clients can be tunneled
over SSH to a client machine.

I need to install cervisia on this machine. On the homepage of cervisia
(http://cervisia.kde.org/overview.html) it is stated that the only
requirements for running cervisia are:

    * Qt 3.3
    * kdelibs 3.5

However, on a RHEL4 machine, I need to install the following packages to
satisfy all dependencies of kdelibs (note that RHEL4 uses kdelibs 3.3.1):

kdelibs-3.3.1-3.14.i386.rpm alsa-lib-1.0.6-5.RHEL4.i386.rpm
arts-1.3.1-2.i386.rpm audiofile-0.2.6-1.el4.1.i386.rpm
desktop-backgrounds-basic-2.0-26.2.1E.noarch.rpm esound-0.2.35-2.i386.rpm
gamin-0.1.1-4.EL4.i386.rpm hicolor-icon-theme-0.3-3.noarch.rpm
libart_lgpl-2.3.16-3.i386.rpm libidn-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm libogg-1.1.2-1.i386.rpm
libvorbis-1.1.0-1.i386.rpm qt-3.3.3-9.3.i386.rpm
redhat-artwork-0.120.1-1.2E.i386.rpm libmng-1.0.8-1.i386.rpm
kdesdk-3.3.1-2.i386.rpm kdepim-3.3.1-2.1.i386.rpm kdebase-3.3.1-5.13.i386.rpm
pilot-link-0.11.8-8.i386.rpm cdparanoia-libs-alpha9.8-24.i386.rpm
libraw1394-0.10.1-3.i386.rpm lm_sensors-2.8.7-2.40.3.i386.rpm
samba-common-3.0.10-1.4E.9.i386.rpm xinitrc-4.0.14.3-1.noarch.rpm
xorg-x11-xdm-6.8.2-1.EL.13.36.i386.rpm xorg-x11-xfs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.36.i386.rpm
switchdesk-4.0.6-3.noarch.rpm ttmkfdir-3.0.9-14.1.EL.i386.rpm
xorg-x11-6.8.2-1.EL.13.36.i386.rpm
xorg-x11-font-utils-6.8.2-1.EL.13.36.i386.rpm chkfontpath-1.10.0-2.i386.rpm
fonts-xorg-base-6.8.2-1.EL.noarch.rpm

This is a package list for a desktop environment.

I tried to install only the kdelibs and Qt packages w/o installing the
dependencies (rpm -i --nodeps), but cervisia then will not start and reports
missing libraries.

How can I install cervisia without installing a complete desktop system?

Thanks

--theHog.

I don't think that kdelibs depends on kdebase or kdepim but kdesdk could
do.

You should install Qt and kdelibs with all dependencies and kdesdk
without.

If the above fails you could compile Qt, kdelibs and Cervisia with a
minimum of dependencies youself.
