A Better Error Message?

Howdy CMakers,

I completely removed my KDE4 install dir, and then mistakenly tried to build kdepim
before kdelibs4_snapshot.  So, I got the following from CMake:

Re-run cmake no build system arguments
-- Check for working C compiler: gcc
-- Check for working C compiler: gcc -- works
-- Check size of void*
-- Check size of void* - done
-- Check for working CXX compiler: c++
-- Check for working CXX compiler: c++ -- works
ERROR: cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake not found in /misc/home/winterz/.kde4/share/apps/;/usr/share/apps/
-- Configuring done


I was wondering if we could do better than the error message above.

Perhaps something like:  
"ERROR: cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake not found in /misc/home/winterz/.kde4/share/apps/;/usr/share/apps/
Did you forget to install kdelibs first?"

Is this possible?
