<para><parameter>--prefix=&kde-dir;</parameter>: This option tells the process 
to install the package in <filename class="directory">&kde-dir;</filename>.
</para>

<para><option>--disable-debug</option>: This option causes the 
package to be compiled without debugging code.</para>

<para><option>--disable-dependency-tracking</option>: This option 
speeds up one time builds.</para>

<para><parameter>--enable-fast-malloc=full</parameter>: This option tells 
<acronym>KDE</acronym> programs to use an internal memory allocation 
scheme optimized for <acronym>KDE</acronym>.</para>

<!-- <para><option>-disable-pcre</option>: Omit this switch if you have
