Make the direktory build: mkdir build
Change into the directory: cd build

Or even easier use your distributions package management thing to install it, most distros keep their packages up to date.

Indeed, sidux for example is almost always up to date with KTorrent packages.

A problem arises when I try to run the cmake command:

Code: Select all
user@computer:~/Desktop/ktorrent/build$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix/of/kde4/installation ..

Use Yum, Apt or whatever your distro uses for package management as George said

As root:
$ yum install ktorrent
or
$ apt-get install ktorrent
etc...

And on KDE 4 it's
Code: Select all
tar -xvjf ktorrent-3.X.Y.tar.bz2
cd ktorrent-3.X.Y
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
make
sudo make install

Yeah, did that. Now I'm trying to get one of the up-to-date beta's because I'm sick of ktorrent crashing all the time.

I ran
Code: Select all
tar -xvjf ktorrent-3.2beta1.tar.bz2
cd ktorrent-3.2beta1
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
make
sudo make install


And received the following output:

BTW Do I need to remove ktorrent before installing the beta?

Yes since you're installing to the same prefix.

at first you said
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/prefix/of/kde4/installation ..

;)

Do you have the latest version of cmake installed? I am not 100% sure what the error means, for that we need george around :)
