I use KDE 4.8. I downloaded the srpm and built it myself. Fairly
straightforward. I had to install some additional dependencies for
building and had to comment some lines in the spec file about debugging
information (I guess the spec wants me to generate debugging symbols but
I don't know how and I was to lazy to investigate).
