struggling to build KDev4

[Marek Jasovsky]

Hi

I have successfully built kdelibs (trunk) into $HOME/kde4 but now I am
not sure, how to tell cmake (for kdevplatform) that it should use
kdelibs from $HOME/kde4 and not from original locations. how should I
do this?

(I did not previously do such linux development, that's why my
questions might seem simple, or strange.

thanks a lot

Marek
