Thank you, I think I did so. 

I try again though, running make -f Makefile.cvs in my source dir, and 
configure in the build dir.

Then cd kaddressbook and make: same result. 

The file printingwizard_base.h appears to be created in my build dir, but 
included from the src dir. Conclusion: your code fails with builddir != 
srcdir - very bad for those of us using that working method! How fast can you 
fix this? changing to building in the src dir would require me to rebuild all 
of kdebase, apart from that I like using a separate build dir.

Now, don't take this bad, but using designer is usually not yelding good 
results when coding kde apps. You loose kde compliance by doing it, apart 
from the downsides as to building. I use designer as a sketch pad, but when 
it comes to distributing code, esp for kde modules, I do think "real" code - 
inheriting from the nice kde classes - is preferable.
