Well, English doc is veeeery limited (on http://kadu.net). But you can ask 
questions on Kadu's forum. There's a section for English speaking persons:
http://kadu.net/forum

About the lock, well I'll have to wait for your backtrace. Until then I can't 
figure out anything useful. :/

Yep, sorry, forgot about dpkg-dev package for dpkg-source. :)

Of course you can ommit --prefix=~/kadu and install to default 
location: /usr/local/bin. But you surely don't have to. In this case ~/kadu 
is enough. When you're done you can uninstall Kadu very simple way:
rm -rf ~/kadu

:) Or you may install to /usr/local, but if you want to uninstall Kadu from 
there after creating backtrace you have to do it by invoking:
make uninstall

from Kadu's source tree, that you've compiled. It's not important where you'll 
install it, so it's up to you.
