<para>The Analog Realtime Synthesizer (aRts) provides sound support for KDE.
It provides necessary libraries for kdelibs. It will use the
following optional packages, if installed:
<screen><xref linkend="alsa"/>, <xref linkend="audiofile"/>, <xref linkend="libvorbis"/>,
and <xref linkend="objprelink"/>.</screen></para>
<para>
<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=&kde-dir; --enable-objprelink \

make &amp;&amp;
make install &amp;&amp;
ln -sf &kde-dir; /opt/kde</userinput></screen></para>
<note><para>Another configure option is <userinput>--enable-final</userinput>.
This option can speed up the build process, but requires a lot of memory. If
you have less than 256MB of RAM, this option will cause swapping and
significantly slow compilation. This option applies to all the
kde packages.</para></note>

<para><userinput>--prefix=&kde-dir;:</userinput> This option tells the
process to install the package in &kde-dir;.</para>

<filename>objprelink</filename> has been known to cause problems on some
systems. If it does not work on your system you will have to rebuild kde
without it.</para></warning>
<para><userinput>--enable-objprelink:</userinput> This option enables
the linking process to optimize executable loading times by prelinking
many internal references.
</para>
<para><userinput>--disable-debug:</userinput> This option causes the
system to be compiled without debugging code.
</para>
<para><userinput>--disable-dependency-tracking:</userinput> This option speeds
up one time builds.
</para>
<para><userinput>ln -s &kde-dir; /opt/kde:</userinput> This command creates
a link for access to KDE. If a newer version of KDE is released, the new
system can be built by changing the <userinput>--prefix</userinput> location
and then set up by just changing the link.

<para>The library directory <filename class="directory">/opt/kde/lib</filename>
should appear in <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename>
so that ldd can find the shared libraries. The following command will add it
if it is missing:
<screen><userinput>cat &gt;&gt; /etc/ld.so.conf &lt;&lt; "EOF"</userinput>
# Begin kde addition to /etc/ld.so.conf
/opt/kde/lib
# End kde addition
<userinput>EOF
