Hello!

I created a konqueror sidebar plugin. The problem is that I cannot make 
konqueror find it, i.e. I can't see my plugin in the list of plugins to add. 
I'm using KDE 3.5.3 and I used the template provided with kdevelop3. To me 
everything seems to be in order and there is no indication or error messages 
about what could be wrong. Should I consider making a debug build of 
konqueror to find out 
more?

I even took a look at the existing plugins in the KDE websvn.
In my undestanding, a plugin should have:

-a .desktop file that tells some things about the plugin, that has a
X-KDE-KonqSidebarModule entry that tells the name of the module, installed in 
$KDEDIR/share/apps/konqsidebartng/entries

-a library file containing create_<modulename> symbol with a certain signature 
installed  $KDEDIR/lib.

What am I missing?

So far I've tried installing the plugin under a directory that is listed under 
$KDEDIRS, and even to $KDEDIR, nothing works.
