I have currently changed the setup to: Code: Select all. clone git if you have some user local bin: If you make changes to the source code, build by running the following command: Once this is triggered, the environment will be updated to prefer kdesrc-build versions of any built programs (for eg: kdeconnect-kde). The default value is, build-dir: This controls where kdesrc-build actually builds the various modules. A detailed sample configuration file is included, usually you can just copy it to ~/.config/kdesrc-buildrc and be done with it.

The kdesrc-buildrc file is one of the major reasons to use kdesrc-build instead of building manually, as it will allow you to specify build settings to use all of the time instead of having to always remember to type in the correct command line settings and export the right environment variables. (You can, of course, add or remove most modules if you like).
