So where's the problem with kdesupport? We could add a line "If you don't 
have xxx installed just check out kdesupport". If a lib is missing configure 
will spit out the same so users can (hopefully..) choose if they have to 
install kdesupport but still don't need to get five other libs from ten other 
places.
