Got the following error when installing KDE from BLFS 6.1 manual...

                    This means it has been moved since you installed it.
                    This won't work. Please recompile kdelibs for the new prefix.

KDE-CONFIG says...

 

root, /src/kdebase-3.4.1 :kde-config --prefix

root, /src/kdebase-3.4.1 :

Removing --prefix-$KDE_PREFIX when configureing KDElibs results in...

checking for aRts-1.1... ./configure: line 41035: cd: /usr/local/kde: No such file or directory
configure: error: aRts 1.1 not installed in the same prefix as KDE!
Please reinstall aRts in the same prefix as KDE, different prefixes are not
supported right now.

(kdelibs prefix is /usr/local/kde, aRts prefix is )



Looking at the instructions for ARTS, KDELIBS and KDEbase they all have --PREFIX=$KDE_PREFIX after ./configure . I can't find anywhere where this variable is supposed to be set and is not set in curent build environment.

Found KDE in /lib/kde3

Am I right in thinking that KDE_PREFIX should have been set coz I can't see it in the manual?
 
Thanks
