[Kalzium] Kalzium ported to Avogadro 0.6.1

[Benoît Jacob]

Hi Marcus,

Thank you a lot for having done this. It's absolutely great that KDE is now 
taking full advantage from your SoC work alst year. It boosts chances of 
Kalzium/Avogadro getting a new SoC this year.

I was going to try to help but only half-way into getting by kde-trunk 
environment back to shape. Now I will finish updating it, look at what you've 
done, and hopefully give a helping hand if I can.

Cheers,

Benoit
