Currently I use the version number for kde because they release all the
major packages under the same 
release number. I found it comfortable using kde2 and kde2.1_beta2 by
using eighter "kde2" or "kde21" in 
~/.wm.

In other kde packages I used the $KDEDIR env variable (set by 90kde).
I think we should continue using the version number in the dir name but
maybe we can add a symlinj to /opt/kde2.

Because gnome-libs and oaf depend on gnome-env the gnome-env file is
automatic available.

Should we wait for 1.4 final? (or 1.4.1 :-) )
