Peter, there is a subtle difference to install software from a software centre and from installing it from source.
Building from source (that is what you tried) can be a bit tricky at times and involves a bit of knowledge about the process and the tools. Since I don't know, which distro you are using and which version of KDE (KDE4 or KF5) it uses as base system, I cannot tell you what to do next. BTW: 4.6.x is outdated. We are currently working on a 4.8.1 release for KDE4 based systems and a separate one for KF5 based systems. Hope that helps a bit further. Thomas On Sonntag, 24.
