Is there a build order for KDE?

I'm a maintainer of Paldo GNU/Linux. I did XFCE 4.4.0 for it. Now I want also do KDE. Is there a build order to build the packages?

Thats the actual list in alphabetic order:

What is the build order for it? XFCE has a nice site for it:

Do you guys have also such a list?

Can it be this order for KDE?

Source code

GARNAME = kde
GARVERSION = 1
CATEGORIES = meta

LIBDEPS = kde/kdebase kde/kdepim kde/kdenetwork kde/kdeartwork kde/kdeaccessibility kde/kdegraphics kde/kdemultimedia kde/kdegames kde/kdeaddons kde/kdeutils kde/kdeedu kde/kdetoys kde/kdesdk kde/kdewebdev kde/kdeadmin

DESCRIPTION = kde

include ../../gar.mk

install-%/Makefile:
	@mkdir -p $(COOKIEDIR)/install-$*
	$(MAKECOOKIE)

So it will be this order:

kdebase
kdepim
kdenetwork
kdeartwork
kdeaccessibility
kdegraphics
kdemultimedia
kdegames
kdeaddons
kdeutils
kdeedu
kdetoys
kdesdk
kdewebdev
kdeadmin

... or am I wrong?

afaik qt, arts and kdelibs should be compiled first in this order
all other modules can be compiled in random order

For KDE 3.x:

1. Qt first
2. aRts - can be optional. But if you decide not to build KDE with aRts, you have disable aRts in all other compilations
3. kdelibs - absolutely necessary for the "main" KDE modules
4. kdebase - if you want to run a basic KDE session.

Then as Rinse said, the other modules may be compiled in any order. However, some modules might require another module to be built and installed first.

The following guides might be of more help:
