I think you have configured the wrong prefix. I don't know, if the configure script of kontact recognizes KDEDIR aor if this var is set. I would check if "kontact" is in your kde binary directory, I assume /opt/kde3/bin. Use "which kontact" to do this. If it gives /usr/local/bin/kontact or /usr/bin/kontact, you have built it with the wrong prefix. In this case you have to uninstall all the apps from kontact. To do this, I would unpack the kontact sources again, run the same configure line as you did the first time (yes, the wrong one). After that you can try "make uninstall". I don't know if this is implemented, but I hope so. If not, you have to delete all the hundreds of files manually. Then configure with --prefix=/opt/kde3 and compile and install again. But if kontact is already in the right place now, I'm afraid I don't know a solution... But I don't think so :) Greets, Daniel
