SuperKaramba for TDE

Hi, I've been trying to install SuperKaramba to my driver. However, due to the lack of a kde-config file it does not go along with the installation.
Here's the terminal output:

checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for -p flag to install... yes
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... mawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for kde-config... not found
configure: error: The important program kde-config was not found!

Please check whether you installed KDE correctly.

Re: SuperKaramba for TDE

Exactly the same output from ./configure here:, and KDE is installed correctly.
No package "kde-config" is (anymore ?) available from recent Q4OS or Debian repositories.

Note that SuperKaramba latest version is 0.39 and is 18 years old. Some explanations about this in the History section on this Wikipedia page.

You are in luck, just do "sudo apt-get install superkaramba-trinity"
I found other ways to install docks for my tde install, and I don't think superkaramba is really useful in tde because nothing I put on there worked. Feel free to try tho.
