Problem's Installing KDevelop 3.0.4

[Brian Hart]

Hello:

I am trying to install KDevelop 3.0.4 on Fedora 2.  I have limited user
permissions as it's not my machine, so I can only install/compile programs
in my home directory.  I have no other way of installing programs, and RPMs
are disallowed for me.  So my steps were:

1. To go to http://www.kdevelop.org/ and clicked "Downlaod Current Stable
version (3.0.4)".  Then clicked the appropriate link to download
ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/pub/kde/stable/3.2.3/src/kdevelop-3.0.4.tar.bz2.

2. Next, I extracted the archive into a fresh directory:
/home/bhart/bin/kdevelop-3.0.4/.

3. Next, I ran:

[bhart at nebesa ~] mkdir kdevelop-3.0.4		# for installation
[bhart at nebesa ~] cd bin/kdevelop-3.0.4		# for unpacking of
downloaded files
[bhart at nebesa kdevelop-3.0.4] ./configure
--prefix=/home/bhart/kdevelop-3.0.4
<success>

4. Now, my impression is the next step is to run 'make' and then 'make
install.' So I do the following:

[bhart at nebesa kdevelop-3.0.4] make

<snip....>
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/bhart/bin/kdevelop-3.0.4/lib'
/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --mode=link --tag=CXX g++  -Wnon-virtual-dtor

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lart_lgpl_2
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [libkdevelop.la] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/bhart/bin/kdevelop-3.0.4/lib'

make: *** [all] Error 2
[bhart at nebesa kdevelop-3.0.4] 

5. Clearly, what is happening above is that it is trying to find the library
'art_lgpl_2'.  So I do a 'locate':

[bhart at nebesa kdevelop-3.0.4]$ locate art_lgpl_2
/usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so.2
/usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so.2.3.16

So what's going on?  Apparently the build process isn't finding a file which
should exist just fine.  Thanks for any help.
