You are using SuSE, right? :-)
KDE is by default in /opt/kde3 in SuSE, therefore the rpm's install KDE a=
pps=20
also to /opt/kde3. If you want to install apps from source into /opt/kde3=
 run=20
configure with the --prefix option:
=2E/configure --prefix=3D/opt/kde3

Another way is to set $KDEDIR, add to your .bashrc at the beginning the=20
following line:
export KDEDIR=3D/opt/kde3

I have no idea, why SuSE does not do this by default, it would make insta=
lling=20
KDE apps much easier. I think I'll write them a mail about this.
