and after reading this mail again, i was completely off. is there a
source tree in your ~/KDE/build/kdelibs folder? Perhaps you need to just
"rm -rf *" in your ~/KDE/build/kdelibs folder and try again. I'm not
really sure what the problem is.

Sorry for the previous mail with completely wrong info.
