In the meantime, I have change the configure in Kexi to work again with KDE 
3.1.x without having to download anything from the www.kexi-project.org page.

I have added a configure.in.bot to show at the end of configure that Kexi will 
not be compiled and where to download the missing library.

I still think that this is not the best solution but as we are now on a 
weekend, it is important that KOffice CVS HEAD compiles easily on KDE 3.1.x.

Have a nice day!

PS.: as I was modifying koffice/kexi/configure.in.in, I have made also a 
portability change with the string test by using = (POSIX) instead of == 
(which already does not work with the /usr/bin/test that is on my system, it 
only works in Bash.)
