Is that shipped by default, or was it installed later?

But, realize that cmake can also build Qt programs that don't
have anything to do with KDE.  In that case, where the programs
don't need pkg-config this seems like a needless extra requirement.
Having qmake report everything seems like a much more elegant
solution in that there's one less program you need to depend upon
since we are talking about the FindQt4.cmake script.

I also had no idea of the PKG_CONFIG_PATH before reading it
here.
