You needs the KDE libraries version 3.1.x or higher to run kile-1.6. The Qt 
version required is 3.1.x or higher. Mind you, KDE depends on various other 
libraries, I can't give you an exhaustive list, but here are some:
http://developer.kde.org/build/compile_kde3_1.html

Since you're an ordinary user to have to install KDE in $HOME/.kde. I 
recommend installing Qt in $HOME/.qt (install Qt before KDE!).

Then configure KDE using:
./configure --prefix=$HOME/.kde --with-qt-dir=$HOME/.qt

Depending on your system compiling KDE can be easy or hell. If your system has 
gcc installed (GNU Compiler Collection), it will be relatively painless. 
However prepare to compile/installe more libraries.

If you manage to set up a working KDE, compiling Kile will be trivial :-)

best,
Jeroen
