I think this is because you have the admin directory from the KDE 3.4 branch?

You can check by changing to the admin directory and running "svn info".

If it says something like 
URL: svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.4/kde-common/admin

then you could try deleting the admin dir, and getting the admin dir from 3.5 
instead:

cd koffice
rm -Rf admin
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common/admin

Then try running make -f Makefile.cvs again.

BTW, I think I only got round to updating the "build from source" wiki page to 
point to the 3.5 branch yesterday, so your instructions were probably out of 
date.

Cheers
