kab2kabc depends on libkab. I would suggest to move kdelibs/kab to 
kdelibs/kabc/kab, link the library statically to the conversion tool 
(kdelibs/kabc/kab2kabc) and don't install libkab and its headers 
anymore.

There has been a lot of productive discussions on kde-pim the last 
weeks. We have some code and a couple of people working on it, in 
particular the syncing stuff. I'm looking forward to see your code, 
Mirko. The server side currently isn't addressed, it would be good to 
have something for that side of kde-pim (although I'm sure that we 
still have a lot to discuss ;-)
