Set up a system with debootstrap and chroot into it for building. Do installing there when needed for building packages. Basically it comes down to the following order: 1. qt-copy 2. arts 3. kdelibs Then everything else. Only kdeaddons is depending on kdemultimedia-dev and libkonq4-dev, which means you need kdemultimedia and kdebase installed. Beware of installing kdebase packages completely. If you're installing kdm with dpkg -i it will start another kdm automatically even inside your chroot system which will basically force you to kill it. so just install everything from kdebase without kdm to avoid problems.
