Installation for KDE4 in your system

To compile the source code under linux you have to give these commands in the source code folders. You should use a separate build folder to help cleaning up sources if something goes wrong.

# cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
# make
# su
# make install
