Dunno about steve, but you're unlikely to get MacOSX/Fink support here 
on the main KDE lists unless I happen to be hanging around, since we 
currently still maintain a separate tree from KDE mainline.  I'd point 
you at the Fink lists, but I'm the Fink KDE maintainer, so you'd end up 
talking to me anyways.  <g>

Is that really all you get?  The KDE 3.0 packages (which includes 
1.0.2) are pretty picky about your autoconf/automake/libtool versions.  
Have you hand-installed any stuff like that?  It's the only thing I can 
think of that would cause those errors, since the 10.1-compatible Fink 
tree is all but unmaintained at this point.  Almost none of the Fink 
packagers are still on 10.1, we've all moved on to 10.2.  Nothing's 
changed on 10.1 for some time, and the packages built just fine the 
last time we made a bindist.

Another possibility is to install the binaries.  Arts 1.0.2 and the 
other KDE 3.0 packages are in dselect/apt-get.  It'll save you a lot of 
time compiling, when the end result will be the exact same packages.  =)
