Since CMake 2.8.0 /usr/local/ is checked before /usr/, all CMake versions 
before that first check /usr/ and then /usr/local/.

So, once we require cmake 2.8.0 or 2.8.1 (maybe KDE 4.5 or 4.6) this would 
work automatically.
For now, you can either upgrade to cmake 2.8.0, (just download and unpack 
http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.0-Linux-i386.tar.gz e.g. 
to /opt/ ), or setting the environment variable CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to 
contain /usr/local/ should also work.

E.g. using "cmake-gui ." in the (existing) build dir (or make edit_cache).
