Hmm, but I can't test for it.
Right now I do
if(cmake >= 2.6.3)
install( to lib/cmake/foo)
else
install( to lib/foo/cmake)
endif
Which means that if somebody has built KDE with 2.6.3, then he needs 2.6.3 to
build other software using it.
I'm not sure this patch helps a lot.
Or is it time for a 2.6.2.1 ?
