Introduction

openSUSE has a very string and active KDE team with a lot of information on their own wiki:

• openSUSE KDE Portal
• openSUSE KDE package repositories
• openSUSE KDE Developers Guide (Outdated)
• openSUSE wiki KDE page

See also:

• Building KDE using openSUSE Unstable

This page describes how you can get kde to compile so that you can log in graphically (using kdm, the KDE display manager) and call konqueror (contained in KDEBASE, KDE's base package).

Required Packages

Use the following commands to install the needed packages:

 yast -i alsa-devel automoc4 avahi-devel patch cups-devel kde4-filesystem \
 libbz2-devel avahi-compat-mDNSResponder-devel hal-devel xorg-x11-devel \
 libQtWebKit-devel libxml2-devel kdesdk4 clucene-core-devel boost-devel \
 libjpeg-devel liblrdf-devel libpng-devel libxslt-devel libredland-devel \
 Mesa-devel giflib-devel subversion gcc-c++ gmp-devel xine-devel \
 libgpgme-devel pcre-devel dbus-1-devel libqt4-devel cmake git

kdesupport

You can install kdesupport and its dependencies from SUSE by adding the KDE:KDE4 repository from the openSUSE Build Service to your installation sources. For openSUSE 11.2 add this Repository to your Install Source (Yast)

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/STABLE:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.2/

For older versions of SUSE Linux do:

su
installation_sources -a http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE4:/[YOUR SUSE LINUX VERSION]

Now install kdesupport from SUSE:

yast -i libqca2-devel libsoprano-devel libqimageblitz-devel strigi-devel

Please remember to skip any instructions from Getting_Started/Build/KDE4 that refer to kdesupport. Start to compile with kdelibs.

Return to building KDE 4.
