Ok, I got the svn, but its its missing the configure and make stuffs.   
Here is an ls on the top level dir:

[root diablo knetworkmanager]# ls
AUTHORS         ChangeLog        COPYING   INSTALL               
knetworkmanager.kdevelop  NEWS  README  TODO
autom4te.cache  configure.in.in  Doxyfile  knetworkmanager.conf  
Makefile.am               pics  src

I think the autom4ke.cache was made by my attempt to run autoconf, I 
don't recall seeing it before.

Not knowing all that much about autoconf, I tried that using 
configure.in.in as its argument, but that bails very quickly:

[root diablo knetworkmanager]# autoconf configure.in.in
configure.in.in:3: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion
autoconf/c.m4:1011: AC_C_BIGENDIAN is expanded from...
configure.in.in:3: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1

So the svn suck is not complete with enough stuff to build it, or I need 
more tutorials.
The only other time I used svn, it worked very well indeed.  But here I 
quit while I was ahead...
