When you install kubuntu (or any other kde linux distribution), it already
has KDE installed into /usr of your filesystem. If you run make install as
you show in the command, you are overwriting that KDE with one built from
the source code, this is very likely to break things. Why? Its because your
kubuntu has KDE 4.10 and the kdelibs you built is 4.11
What you should do is install custom built things to your home dir. For
example, I run cmake like this-
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/username/kde
This tells cmake to install things to kde/ inside my home dir. Then to run
kde libs and apps installed to this location, create a script with these
contents-
-----------8<------------------
prepend() { [ -d "$2" ] && eval $1=\"$2\$\{$1:+':'\$$1\}\" && export $1 ; }
export KDEDIR=$HOME/kde
prepend PATH $KDEDIR/bin
prepend LD_LIBRARY_PATH $KDEDIR/lib
prepend PKG_CONFIG_PATH $KDEDIR/lib/pkgconfig
export PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
-----------8<------------------
Then whenever you build/run something, source this script (source
scriptname) and then you should be fine.
