− | This article shows how to download, build, install and start KDE 4 from subversion. It consolidates howtos from various sites, e.g.
| + | #REDIRECT [[Getting_Started/Build|Building KDE]] |
− | [http://developer.kde.org/build/trunk.html the old KDE developer pages]. | |
− | This topic shows one way that works. It does not intend to explain the obvious background behind it.

− | To reduce complexity, we use the bash-shell (standard) throughout the tutorial.

− | == Become the user kde-devel ==
| |
− | useradd kde-devel
| |

− | | |
− | Switch to the user kde-devel: (the dash also changes to the new home directory)
| |
− | su - kde-devel

− | == Set Environment Variables ==
| |
− | You have to add some environment variables - add these lines to {{path|~/.bashrc}}.

− | == Build and Install CMake ==
| |
− | | |
− | The default prefix is <code>/usr/local</code>, make sure {{path|/usr/local/bin}} is in your <code>$PATH</code>.

− | == Build kdelibs ==
| |
− | cd ~/
| |
− | mkdir kdelibs-build
| |
− | cd kdelibs-build
| |
− | cmakekde ../kdelibs
| |
− | | |
− | === Troubleshooting ===
| |
− | If you have problems compiling this, first make sure the following commands can be executed: aclocal, autoconf, autoheader, gcc, g++, pkg-config.
| |
− | | |
− | ; Note: If you get "Could NOT find GIF", install the devel package of <code>libungif</code> (the actual name may vary on distribution).
| |
− | | |
− | If the problems persist, try the make-option <code>--keep-going</code>
| |
− | | |
− | == Build kdepimlibs ==
| |
− | Before ''kdebase'' you need to install ''kdepimlibs''
| |
− | | |
− | cd
| |
− | svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdepimlibs
| |
− | mkdir kdepimlibs-build
| |
− | cd kdepimlibs-build
| |
− | cmake kde ../kdepimlibs
| |
− | | |
− | === Troubleshooting ===
| |
− | To compile against kdelibs (not the snapshot) add
| |
− | set(KDE4_IGNORE_DONTPORT TRUE)
| |
− | to the {{path|CMakeLists.txt}} before <code>find_package(KDE4 REQUIRED)</code>
| |
− | | |
− | == Build kdebase ==
| |
− | You may need kdebase for some kioslaves.
| |
− | cd
| |
− | svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdebase
| |
− | mkdir kdebase-build
| |
− | cd kdebase-build
| |
− | cmakekde ../kdebase
| |
− | | |
− | === Troubleshooting ===
| |
− | If you have troubles compiling this:
| |
− | * Make sure you have the <code>libxss headers</code> installed. (Usually you got undefined references on xscreensaver objects if you haven't those headers)
| |
− | * <code>which meinproc</code> has to deliver {{path|/home/kde-devel/kde/bin/meinproc}}

− | == Start KDE 4 Programs ==
| |
− | To start the desktop environment itself, do:
| |
− | X :1 & export DISPLAY=:1
| |
− | startkde
| |
− | Maybe you are logged in as your normal user (not kde-devel), want to stay in your current environment (KDE 3.5, gnome, whatever) and start a KDE 4 program. To start only kwrite from KDE 4, do:
| |
− | | |
− | kwrite
