Believe it or not, I had very few problems installing KDE3 from source
on Corel Linux.
If you install from source, the dcopidl should be in
kdelibs-3.0.tar.bz2.
It is important to install in this order:
qt-3.0.3 , then arts-1.0.0, then kdelibs-3.0.
After that you can install the others in any order, except kdeaddons
which if you install it must be installed last.
I'm assuming you installed qt-3, though you didn't mention it
Are you setting all your env. vars?
I installed in a strange path obviously you'll have to adjust, but here'
what worked for me:
export KDEDIR=/afolder/corel_addons/kde3/
export QTDIR=/afolder/corel_addons/qt-x11-free-3.0.3/
./configure
make all
# make install
I also added the following 2 lines to /etc/ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig:
/afolder/corel_addons/kde3/lib
/afolder/corel_addons/qt-x11-free-3.0.3/lib
