I've replied to a similar question several months ago in this mailing list, so you might find that mail in the list archive. I'm going to repeat it here for convenience anyway.
Yes, I know compiling kopete isn't the very straightforward task; I've been once there. Fortunately, there're some links on http://techbase.kde.org/ to facilitate this task. I recommend you to first read http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4 to get a grasp of what libraries(depending on your distro) and initial setup you need to do before building kopete. Probably for a quick checkout, reading http://kopete.kde.org/svnaccess.php will do the trick for you. Then you'll find this link http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Increased_Productivity_in_KDE4_with_Scripts and other outgoing links from there very useful for embedding most of the frequently used commands for dealing with KDE build environment into your normal shell setup. I can send you a couple of scripts if you opt to. Those scripts are simply a compilation of what's described in the aforementioned links, , as I know it might seem confusing for the first time for a new user to figure out where each script should reside in your home directory. Feel free to post any further problems/questions you may run into during setting up your development environment. ________________________________ From: Felix Guzman <guzman...@gmail.com> To: kopete-devel@kde.org Sent: Fri, September 10, 2010 12:39:09 PM Subject: Re: New Programmer Wanting to Contribute Thank you for both responses, now, is there a link for setting up a proper development environment?
