Hi,

starting Monday in a week, March 19th, at least CMake 2.4.5 or newer will be 
required for building KDE4.
(the last update was 6 months and one week ago, Sept. 12th, 2006 when we 
required 2.4.3)

This will bring us compared to 2.4.3:
-better support for building the tests (the targets will always be there but 
not always part of the "all" target)
-INSTALL(DIRECTORY ... ) as it is used by the oxygen icons
-faster dependency scanning
-IF( file1 IS_NEWER_THAN file2 ) which will enable us to do automoc at 
buildtime (and not at cmake/configure time as it always was)
-various minor improvements and bug fixes here and there 

So, please update your CMake to version 2.4.5 or 2.4.6 until next Monday, 
March 19th if you haven't done so yet.

With this version we will live again for at least several months.

Bye
Alex
