The problem was not solved by making a symlink from /usr/bin/kde4-config to /usr/bin/kde-config, nor was it solved by copying the file over. On both occasions, I got the following configure error: checking for libXext... yes checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes checking for extra includes... added checking for extra libs... added checking for libz... -lz checking for libpng... -lpng -lz -lm checking for libjpeg6b... no checking for libjpeg... -ljpeg checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl checking for Qt... libraries /usr/qt/3/lib64, headers /usr/qt/3/include using -mt checking for moc... /usr/qt/3/bin/moc checking for uic... /usr/qt/3/bin/uic checking whether uic supports -L ... yes checking whether uic supports -nounload ... yes checking if Qt needs -ljpeg... no checking for rpath... yes checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE libraries installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix!
