Can someone please tell me the steps to rebuild with the current release version? I used git clone (git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kdevelop $HOME/src/kdevelop) and apparently should have somehow told it a version. Is there a way to list what version names there are? I also need to know what the matching versions are and how to retrieve them for the plugins I built with it: kdev-python, grantlee, kdev-php, kdev-php-docs, kdev-platform, kdevelop-pg-qt. Is it possible any of those won't need to be rebuilt?

Every version which is released gets a tag. You can list all tags with "git tag". You can checkout a tag with "git checkout <tagname>".
You want:
kdevplatform v1.5.1
kdevelop v4.5.1
kdev-python v1.5.1
kdev-php v1.5.1
kdev-php-docs v1.5.1

grantlee, kdev-pg-qt doesn't matter afaik

Greetings,
Sven

Thanks, that helps. Please verify my understanding. I'm hoping to get it right the first time. I believe I should now go into the build directory and uninstall. Then go into the src directory of for example kdev-python and checkout the version I want, then rebuild and install. Looking like this:

cd ~/src/kdev-python/build
sudo make uninstall
cd ..
git checkout v1.5.1
cd build
make
sudo make install

Does this seem right? Do I need cmake anymore or was the first time good?

Yes, seems right, although you can probably omit the uninstall step in most cases (the new installation will overwrite the old one, although old files might not get deleted -- so it's good to do it), and you don't need to cd out of the build-dir to do a git checkout. But what you suggested will work.

Also, you should probably install stuff in order kdevplatform -> everything else.

Thanks much. ...I'm loving kdev-python.
