You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter ‘.’, the field will be left blank.

Requirement :

sudo apt-get install kdevelop-kde4 kdevplatform kdevelop-dev-kde4 kdevelop-data-kde4 kdepimlibs5 kdepimlibs5-dev sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev libqimageblitz4 libqimageblitz-dev

SVN the latest kopete code :

svn co -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/4.2/kdenetwork

svn up kopete cmake

Next,

mkdir ../kdenetwork-build
