[Kde-bindings] adventures with smoke and qtruby (kdebindings 3.2.3)

[Alexander Kellett]

did you first run "make -f Makefile.cvs"?
i'm not sure what exactly the error message means
maybe its due to the autom4te cache that i left
in the tarball. strange stuff :S. thanks very much
for the feedback. i'll integrate richard's commit
of your patch into my branch tonight. i'll also
review my sample code, the canvastest was very
kde installation dependant from the looks at 
your error log. thanks again :)
