Building and installing KDE Connect from source

[Albert Vaca]

You probably installed it in the wrong place.

First go to the build directory and do "sudo make uninstall".

Then run "ccmake .." to open the cmake curses interface. There change
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to "/usr" and KDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS to "OFF" and
run make and make install again.

Note that you are installing it as root, and overriding the files your
distro already have installed. It is thus a good idea, to remove the distro
kdeconnect package if you had it installed before installing it this way,
and always do "make uninstall" before going back to the distro packages.
Otherwise you will end up with a mix of both versions that will most likely
not work.
