Unable to compile KDE from CVS.

Hello everybody,

I am always encountering the same two problems when trying to build KDE from 
CVS with kde-cvsbuild. Would someone please lend me a hand?

My first problem is a cvs update problem. When I have no source downloaded 
at all, kde-cvsbuild downloads packages corectly. However, when I run 
kde-cvsbuild with some packages in place already, it complains with lots of 
messages like:

cvs checkout: move away arts/admin/ChangeLog; it is in the way
C admin/ChangeLog

What does this message mean and what can I do to avoid it? Why can't I 
update from CVS at will? I am updating with CVS and not cvsup (for some 
reasons cvs is doing something bad to NILO).

My second problem is much more serious : I simply can't get KDE to build. 
The compilations seems to always stumble on kdelibs and always with the same 
messages:

Please help me beforeI go mad! My kde-cvsbuild is currently configured to 
download and build the following packages (in that very order):
prefetch="kde-common"
basepkgs="arts kdelibs kdebase kdesdk"

I tried other combinations of packages but nothing worked. I did try to 
build kdelibs first but it still didn't work. I even tried not to download 
and build kde-common, but the problem remained the same.

I am trying to build on redhat9, if that matters. It reminds me I had 
problems building wine until I did it --with-ntpl. Could it be the same 
problem with KDE? Now I think I shoud simply try it ...

I did build QT successfully. That does bring me relief. A little relief.

Any help is welcome! Thanks in advance!
