--- Comment #7 from Henrik Fehlauer <rkflx at lab12.net> ---
As you have observed, for a non-developer / production ready setup, you'd also
need to make the new software known to the system. This can be done system wide
with "sudo make install", or just for a local user by passing
"-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/somepath" to cmake and then "make install" will
install to <somepath>. After that, you'll need to adapt your ~/.profile (see
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source#Set_up_the_runtime_environment
and possibly adapt some variables to the correct path for your system) and
relogin.

However, that's all a bit out of scope for this bug, might still have some
gotchas and generally we don't want to encourage users to break their system by
installing unstable software from random git branches. On the other hand, it's
not that complicated either and anyone reading this who is interested in
digging deeper into KDE development or testing will certainly find help in the
wiki, the IRC channels, forums and on the mailing lists.
