Amarok 2.0 beta 2 (Nujalik) Installation problems

[Guest]

I follow the steps (http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/2.0_Development_HowTo) and I come to:

"cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull .. && make && make install "

After this I get back:

Quote
bash: kde4-config: command not found
CMake Error: Error in cmake code at
/home/MYNAME/amarok/src/context/applets/lastfmevents/CMakeLists.txt:8:
Unknown CMake command "kde4_add_plugin".
-- Configuring done

I'm on kubuntu and have kde4 installed and all of the other needed things. I'm pretty new to linux but yeah I just really can't understand what is going wrong.

Thanks!

Hey thanks for the help! I've done everything you said and it still gives me the same error. Ugh

Mine says "Amarok 2 Beta" but it is actually 1.90. This is the package "amarok-kde4". I took a screenie:

I added the repo for Amarok 2.0 but I still can't upgrade.
I have no idea what could be the problem I have 8.10 RC.
Help my Amarok 1.4 is having some problems with 8.10 and it causes a lot of freezing lately.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
I got it working but I had to use Synaptic...
