Compiling KDE styles

What packages do I need to install to be able to compile KDE styles...?

My google searches are not coming up with anything relevant and neither are the wiki searches I've done...

I'm trying to compile serenity style from here - http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=35954

Fixed a couple of errors by making a symbolic link from /usr/bin/kde4-config to /usr/bin/kde-config and installed qt3

checking for KDE... configure: error:
in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE libraries installed. This will fail.
So, check this please and use another prefix!
[martin@tardis serenity-1.7.1-source]$ kde-config --prefix
/usr
[martin@tardis serenity-1.7.1-source]$

You already have serenity and serenity-git PKGBUILD in AUR so you don't have to write your own PKGBUILD. But if you really want to learn how to install styles, look at the PKGBUILD which installs such styles. And of course, look in wiki for more info ...

Serenity in AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=serenity

Building packages through PKGBUILD:
