You need to install development tools. Run “install make” in your terminal

Hi Jim, did you ever get to install Kalendar on your Mint?

The install instructions do not work for me under Linux Mint Mate latest version. Simply typing qmake in the indicated directory gives these errors:

root@james-desktop:/usr/src/kalendar-master# qmake
qmake: could not exec ‘/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake’: No such file or directory

I just looked up UK’s Kalender. It’s a decent app.
It doesn’t support import/export from other calendars nor does it support direct printing.

Yes, it will be more powerful and flexible soon.

Is there a calendar app you have been using since you switched over to Linux?

When I saw the title… I immediately thought of a windows program by the same name: UK’s Kalendar at: http://www.ukrebs-software.de/

Before I switched over the Linux, I was a heavy user of UK’s Kalendar. It wasn’t just a reminder, appt thingy – it made a great journal with a good set of recurring and other date-driven actions.

This one looks like it has the ability to do journaling without lots of extra steps. I see the author hopes to add encryption, which will make this a powerful and flexible local solution.
