[edit] Software Requirements
In Ark Linux, the build dependencies you need are installed with:
apt-get install devel-core libxml-devel libxslt-devel bzip2-devel \
clucene-core-devel librdf-devel shared-mime-info xorg-Mesa-libGL-devel \
subversion boost-devel doxygen giflib-devel dbus-devel openssl-devel \
alsa-lib-devel kdesdk-scripts qt-devel
If you prefer a graphical interface, select the packages listed above in the "Install Software" tool in Mission Control.
This includes installation of CMake, DBus and Qt - you can skip steps 5, 6 and 7.
Return to building KDE 4.
