Not that it matters now I see you have it installed from the mentors
site but of anyone else who wants to try it here is what I have when I
built it a couple of days ago from my notes.
Downloaded and extract in my archive directory had to export
QTDIR=/usr/share/qt3 in the console for it to find qt and
use ./configure --prefix=/usr.

Good - your configure finished. Start make now
It compiled fine and used checkinstall to build a .deb the docs and
icons/desktop link end up in a non-standard debian directories so you
have to start with it rekall in a console or using the run command
dialog in KDE.
