It is always the same problem. KDE needs some stuff, KOffice suffers the=20
consequences. (And always without warning.)

If really automake 1.5 is out of scope for BSD, you should talk to Stepha=
n=20
Kulow ( mailto:coolo@kde.org ) and CC the Core Devel Mailing List=20
mailto:kde-core-devel@kde.org because you would need it too to build KDE =
3.2=20
(Stephan made the change.)

However as KOffice 1.3 is supposed to be after KDE 3.2 as far as I know, =
I do=20
not know if it is really important or not. (Automake is much easier to up=
date=20
compared to for example QT.)

Have a nice day/evening/night!
