There is a simple and automatic way for building KDE4 using the kdesvn-build script. Download the latest release of the kdesvn-build script from http://kdesvn-build.kde.org/. Your distribution might have a package with kdesvn-build script but most probably that will be dated. So download the latest release from the website. As mentioned in the [[../|Getting Started]] page, install all the required packages for your distribution. Also, create a new user kde-devel as explained [[../|here]].
#REDIRECT [[Getting_Started/Build/kdesvn-build]]
Log into your new user and untar the kdesvn-build tarball to your home folder. Now, use the sample buildrc file to create your buildrc file.
<code>
cp kdesvn-build/kdesvn-buildrc-sample ~/.kdesvn-buildrc
</code>
Modify the .kdesvn-buildrc file for selecting which modules to compile and which to leave out.
Add kdesvn-build/ folder to your path by adding this line to your .bashrc
<code>
export PATH=~/kdesvn-build/:$PATH
</code>
Now, all that remains to do is run the script!
<code>
kdesvn-build
</code>
