Good point. Did that here. That's how I usually update packages I build from 
source because I have seen it to fail too many times if I use any other form 
of shortcut.

Same here, but that's what the separate build directory is good for: just kick 
it out if it does not work and start from scratch.

In case you have a KDE3 and KDE4 version installed in parallel (as I do on my 
SuSE 11.1), it would be 

   cp ~/.kde4/share/config/kmymoney2rc ~/.kde4/share/config/kmymoneyrc

Using your suggestion would ruin my KDE3 settings :( Using

  cp $KDEHOME/share/config/kmymoney2rc $KDEHOME/share/config/kmymoneyrc

To be on the safe side, use

  kde4-config --localprefix

to figure out the correct value. Here the KDE4 and KDE3 versions on my box:

thb at dollo:~> kde4-config --localprefix
/home/thb/.kde4/
thb at dollo:~> kde-config --localprefix
/home/thb/.kde/
