Since some months I get the following install error on cmake the kdebase package:

CMake Error at workspace/plasma/scriptengines/python/cmake_install.cmake:60 (FILE):
  file cannot create directory: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PyKDE4.
  Maybe need administrative privileges.

  cmake_install.cmake:39 (INCLUDE)


make: *** [install] Error 1


As I do not want to install parts of the trunk version of KDE into the normal system I do not want cmake to copy files to /usr/lib/. Is there a way to change this into the normal build-directory of kde4?

Currently I just disable building of python stuff. But this might be a bad solution for testing KDE4 and reporting issues.

Thanks,
Gert
