Thats wrong, you shouldn't put the builddirectory there. Where did you
install kdevplatform to? You'll need something like this:

cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<where kdevplatform was installed to> ../

when running cmake in kdevelop. Also uninstall doesn't make any sense here.
Just delete the whole builddir and then run the above cmake and make
afterwards. 

In case you're worried about older plugins lying in your installation dir
for kdevplatform/kdevelop, just delete the installation dir (or any
*kdev*.so and *kdev*.desktop files from it)
