Hi,

the current CVS HEAD refuses to make install in kdebase.
I get:

make[2]: Entering directory `/disc/PACKAGES/KDE-3.2/kdebase-030220/kate/app'
make[3]: Entering directory `/disc/PACKAGES/KDE-3.2/kdebase-030220/kate/app'
/bin/sh ../../admin/mkinstalldirs /disc/KDE-3.2/bin
ln -s /disc/KDE-3.2/bin/kate
ln: `./kate': File exists
make[3]: *** [install-kdeinit-links] Error 1

In the Makefile I find
BROCKENBORING = 

	@if test "$(BROCKENBORING)" = "$(bindir)/brockenboring"; then \
	echo $(LN_S) brockenboring $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate ; \
	$(LN_S) brockenboring $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate ; else \
	echo $(LN_S) $(BROCKENBORING) $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate ;\
	$(LN_S) $(BROCKENBORING) $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate ; fi

So I would say, this can not work with BROCKENBORING = "", because
ln -s "" $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate  runs as
ln -s $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/kate
which links the non-existing kate in my installdir to the local dir ...

Any hints to solve this ?

P.S.: Running on RH 7.2
