For you Fedora users here's what I did to build from trunk:

1. Got kdegraphics/libs from trunk by svn.

2. Got kdegraphics-4.4.1-1.fc12.src.rpm from updates.

3. Ran rpm -i

4. Modified the kdegraphics.spec file to remove the the libs directory 
and then copied the libs directory from trunk.

..............
%prep
%setup -q -n kdegraphics-%{version}%{?alphatag}

+rm -rf ./libs
+cp -av  /home/photo/build/digikam/kdegraphics/kdegraphics/libs .

%build
..................

5. rpmbuild --bb the modified spec file

And it worked. Or at least it built, and I could build digikam and 
kipi-plugins from trunk.

YMMV.
