So you compile as root?

I've seen it cause issues) I'll look into this, I recall you mentioning something about this a while back. I've pretty much left checkinstallrc alone (I just installed it on my home box, prior to compiling KDE 2.2.2. Installed it at work a while ago). Questions: Why specify configure flags when they're the default? For qt, you've specified -release -shared -no-nas-sound -sm -xinerama -xrender -xft -no-tablet and -xkb, all of which seem to be the default, according to ./configure --help Also, you've listed qt-x11-free-3.x.x. I'd downloaded qt-copy-3.0.3, what's the difference? You've placed qt3 in /usr/lib. Is that just personal preference? Why not /usr/local/lib, or /opt? Why --prefix=$KDEDIR ... --with-qt-dir=$QTDIR, again, aren't these the default?
