A I see. I didn't know the new kind of plugins, I only knew the old
qimageio where you had to explicitly call the register methods.
Thanks for the link.
However, I am still not quite sure about if this really useable.
The documentation talks about a "build key" which is used to discriminate
between "legal" and "illegal" plugins. It will refuse to load "illegal
plugins".
Because I would like to package my plugin as part of KSVG (opposed to Qt or
kdelibs/kdecore), how can I be sure that my plugin is considered "legal".
Is 
the "build key" part of the Qt major version? minor version? build time?

Dirk
