Interresting question.

I remember we had a discussion about kdesupport some 2 years ago and how 
it became to much of a burden to maintain.  So its not just that we have 
to type 'make install' (which will make me have 2 versions of one 
package, but never mind that)

Your question is interresting since now we are back to telling new users 
to use the kdesupport module again.  So more bugs, questions on #kde and 
newsgroups etc.

Not to mention that 3.5 is not really far away and various distro's don't 
carry the package yet. How likely do you think it is that KMail 3.5 will 
ship in debian this year?

Are people clear on what kdesupport is for?  Luis' answer tells me he is 
not.  Its suppost to be a place to make it easier to get the support 
libraries for KDE developers.  So they are per definition copies of libs 
created elsewhere and are not shipped with KDE and also expected to be 
shipped in distro's quite soon (since otherwise we wouldn't depend on 
them).
And as I said; a long time ago we actually decided to not depend on this 
concept anymore, but we never completely got rid of the module.

Leaves me to say that its amazing how hard the lessons we learned from 
this module are to learn, that we make then again so soon after.
