When I want to install KDE from the sources (either stable or unstable), I compile everything to be installed in a directory different from /usr (where KDE packages install to in Debian and others), preferably in $HOME. This way you save conflicts between the two installations. Is not hard to do at all, but you require a little bit of trial and error, especially when you lack the packages of the required libraries. My recipe is this. Copy the following in a terminal (or you could save it in a file called "environment.sh", and then source it doing ". environment.sh", that is, a dot, a space, and the name of the file): export LANG=C build=kdetrunk # Qt #export QTDIR=$HOME/kde/qt-copy export QTDIR=/usr/share/qt4 #export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=$HOME/local/$build/lib/kde4/plugins:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH #export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$QTDIR/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH # KDE export KDEDIR=$HOME/local/$build export KDEDIRS=$KDEDIR:$KDEDIRS export KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde-$build export KDEVARTMP=/var/tmp/kde-$build-$USER mkdir -p $KDEVARTMP # System export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$KDEDIR/bin:$PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$QTDIR/lib:$KDEDIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH # DBus export DBUSDIR=$KDEDIR export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$DBUSDIR/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH This list of variables could be improved slightly. I can only say that it seems to work for me. Now, assuming that you have downloaded the KDE modules (kdelibs, kdebase, etc.) in ~/kde, create a build directory in ~/kde/build. Now do: cd ~/kde/build mkdir kdelibs cd kdelibs cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KDEDIR ../../kdelibs make install If everything is in place, cmake will not complain at all, you will be able to compile fine (assuming the build is not broken, which is pretty common in trunk). Everything will be installed to ~/local/$build, so you can delete this directory and you will be good. In that session you can start applications. If you need the whole desktop, you should stop the running KDE, and start a new one in the console. You will have to set the environment again, of course. > In the case I need to rebuild KDE completely, where I can find > information about the dev packages I need to complete this task? That's probably the hardest path. If you need to compile the whole KDE SC, there are lots of dependencies. And the worst part is that probably, if you want to build trunk, you sometimes require and unstable library that is not released nor packaged, so you will have to build it yourself again doing the same steps. It helps looking at the packaged version of what you are building, and looking at Build-Depends. Normally you will require the same, but with higher version number. -- Alex (a.k.a. suy) | GPG ID 0x0B8B0BC2 http://barnacity.net/ | http://disperso.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
