I've got this problem again this morning compiling SVN clean vs openSUSE built 
qt4, soprano, akonadi, automoc packages.   There's no CMake version mixing; 
I'm using CMake 2.6.0 here from openSUSE 11.0, which is the same version used 
to build the packages.  

/space/kde/installs/trunk/share/apps/cmake/modules/KDEPimLibsDependencies.cmake
/space/kde/installs/trunk/share/apps/cmake/modules/KDELibsDependenciesInternal.cmake

are full of "general" every other entry in the semicolon-delimited lists.

Any idea what's causing it here?
