Or from a normal, plain old vanilla source code tarball.
Yeah, I know this is a pain, but version 0.42 adds a bug fix that has
been haunting us PIMsters for years and I really want to eliminate for good.
OTOH: some distros (suse for example) backported this bug fix to their 0.41 packages.
I just can't think of a way to detect if the bug fix is available using CMake.
Other then if(distro == suse) => allow 0.41
