I'm following the build instructions at http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4_Alpha_1 and when I get to the "make install" for kdelibs, the install directory in /usr/local. Q1: Isn't it supposed to be /home/<kde4_user>/kde? Q2: If so, how do I force the cmake scripts to install KDE4 there? Q3: If /usr/local is the correct directory, wont that corrupt my current KDE3 installation?

I'm trying to compile KDE4 Alpha2 using the instructions at http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4_Alpha_1 and I am getting the following errors /home/kde4/qt-copy/lib/libQtUiTools.a(formscriptrunner.o): In function `QFormInternal::QFormScriptRunner::QFormScriptRunnerPrivate::engineError(QScriptEngine&': /home/kde4/qt-copy/tools/designer/src/uitools/../lib/uilib/formscriptrunner.cpp:103: undefined reference to `QScriptEngine::evaluate(QString const&' /home/kde4/qt-copy/tools/designer...

Hi Bramm, Thanks for your replies - they are appreciated. Yes, $KDEDIR is set properly. I've also defined KDEDIRS=$KDEDIR, rerun kbuildsycoca but the problems are still there. $echo $KDEDIR /usr/local/kde $echo $KDEDIRS /usr/local/kde $ll /usr/local/kde lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Feb 4 15:24 /usr/local/kde -> kde-3.5.1/ The following is a portion of the output ftom kbuildsycoca kbuildsycoca running... kio (KSycoca): Trying to open ksycoca from /var/tmp/kdecache-kmg/ksycoca Reusing existing ksycoc...

No, I hadn't! Firstly, what is kbuildsycoca? What do it do? Should it be run as root? Secondly, obviously I have now run it, both as root and as a normal user. But it has had no effect!

I've just compiled and installed 3.5.1 (on FC4) and I am getting the following errors Konqueror I get the same error as documented in http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=kfmclient. I've tried various things to get around this problem, but nothing works. KMenuEdit - wont start from the RMB menu KControl display an empty widget for the panel config, same happens when I enter kcmshell panel in a konsole window.
