You are supposed to only install the parts you want. This is usually the job 
of the packager. For instance you install juk by only running make install 
under juk. For aKode the idea is the same with the plugins. They can all be 
installed separatly. Not that I dislike your patch, it can be usefull for 
developers using cvs, but a packager or user shouldn't use that.
