Hello,

It seems that building (or rather linking) with cmake 2.4 in kdebase is 
currently broken (there are multiple report about this on IRC and mailing 
lists), the solution is to upgrade to 2.6. Since there is no real point in 
spending time fixing linking for 2.4, wouldn't it be a good idea to make 
clear right now that 2.6.0 is a hard requirement ? This would remove some 
confusion.
