Re: [kde-linux] Installing KDE in Home Directory


--- Kevin Krammer <kevin.krammer@xxxxxx> ha scritto:
Yes, this should work pretty nicely.
You need to make sure that whatever you compile, you
pass the
--prefix
option to configure, for examle

./configure --prefix /home/username/kdeinstall

Then, for running it, you need to make sure a couple
of environment variables
are set correctly

PATH needs to point to prefix/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to point to prefix/lib

KDEDIRS needs to point to prefix

Cheers,

Dear Kevin,

Thanks for responding. Please let me know if there is
any documentation on what to download and what to
compile, and how to do it. I am new to this.

As I mentioned in my original email, I tried to use
Konstruct but it first complains regarding the
libpcre, and then crashes because it cannot find
/usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.la

Any ideas
Thanks again,
O.O.

P.S. Is this the correct mailing list for this
question. Also if I have questions regarding
Konstruct, do I post them here, or to another list.
