Because cmake found two different versions of a library you're trying to 
link against. And it is unable to find a solution to the problem.

What is probably happening is that you're building KDE application A that 
links to libs X and Y. And the library Y also links to X, but it's a 
different version.

So CMake cannot fix the problem by changing the library ordering on the 
command-line.

The only times this has happened to me, all it took was to remove 
CMakeCache.txt and start a new, consistent build. Make sure that the 
version of the library you do NOT want to link against isn't in /usr/lib 
(if it is, you'll have to remove it).
