macro_optional_add_subdirectory()

[Stephen Kelly]

I sent this to kdepim-devel through knode. Apparently this newsgroup is 
unidirectional, so I couldn't just cc it.
Here's the mail anyway.

Hi,

As above I've been trying to build kmobiletools, and run into problems with
parts of kdepim depending on each other. To compile it I had to:

  svn up knotes wizards plugins libkleo kleopatra kaddressbook korganizer     
  kmail knode

as well. 

Can kdepim be reorganized so that it's applications are less interdependant
and make the module more modular?

Regards,

Steve.
