Hi!

The pykde in kdelibs gives that many warnings
while compiling that I'm sure it's an old version
and won't work with newer KDE/Qt.

On the home page of pyKDE there is a newer version
(from May 4) that also split the sources into more
files. So I guess, the one in kdelibs is _definitly_
old, but this version if for Qt 1.44 and KDE 1.1.1,
but we need one for HEAD and Qt 2.0. 

But when I tried what it would mean to update pyKDE,
I found that the sources for the bindings are about
8MB and I'm afraid that is way too big to be included
as part of kdelibs. 
So we need to have a plan what to do with it - make
it an optional package? What applications are using
it right now?
The sources could also be created from the kdelibs 
sources as far as I understood the pyKDE home page,
but I'm not sure how well this would work with later
versions. And the problem with the size still remains ;(

But it doesn't make sense to maintain an obsolete
version of pykde within kdelibs.

Greetings, Stephan
