Please Forget KDEDIR every existed!

You should use KDEDIRS it works just like path. KDEDIR was not used since KDE 1.x afaik and is only used by developers to save haveing to type in long paths.

I only define QTDIR and set my KDEDIRS as seen below:
[code:1]
export QTDIR=/usr/local/qt-copy
export KDEDIRS=/usr/local/test/kde3:/opt/kde3
[/code:1]
It all works great.

--prefix

if it can't find your kde libraries you may need to pass --prefix=<pathtokde> to configure... e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr
