The dmg files contain pre-built binaries that will go in /usr/local/qt 
(for Qt) and /opt/kde (for everythign else).

Just double-click the dmg and there should be an installer inside.

You need to follow the wiki "build from source" directions with patches 
and such for anything that's not there as a dmg package already.
