These two sections in the documentation seems contradictory: *gui-kde* *kde* *KDE* *KVim* There is no KDE version of Vim. There has been some work on a port using the Qt toolkit, but it never worked properly and it has been abandoned. Work continues on Yzis: www.yzis.org.
*gui-x11-kde* For Vim-KDE, you need at least Qt(>=2.x) and the corresponding kdelibs. To compile, you must use the --with-qt-dir configure flag because QTDIR is not automatically detected yet. Giving KDE's directories to the configure script may also help in some cases. By the way, is there anyone out there that is working on a KDE version? I have tried Kyzis a bit, but didn't really like it ... -- Stefan
