Wel
l this is from th kde.org install page and I am not far enough ahead.

Qt 3.0.4 or greater
Automake 1.5 and Autoconf 2.5
a C++ compiler which supports exceptions, preferably 
gcc-2.95.x
or gcc3.1 should work with KDE3.0.1.
bunzip2 to decompress .bz2 files. You can find it here.  Get libbz2 while you're at it, it enables reading of .tar.bz2 files in konqueror, and one day, will give access to .bz2 files to all KDE applications.
If you want SSL support (for instance for secure web sites in konqueror),
 make sure you install openssl, version
 0.9.6 or later (versions 0.9.5x are not supported).
For Netscape-plugins support in konqueror, make sure to install lesstif.
For a better regular-expressions support in Javascript, install libpcre.
For the KDE help system, you'll need to install libxml2, version 2.3.13 or newer.
There are additional modules that are compiled if the required
library is present,  but they aren't critical to run KDE. For
instance, libldap for the LDAP kioslave, and
cdparanoia for the audiocd kioslave. A more detailed list
of requirements is available in the KDE 3.0 Release Announcement
