yes, I realize.. :) thanks for looking into the issue, Alex; and
thanks for reminding me Raphael ;)

I have briefly taken a look but I run into trouble when running cmake
(after upgrading my cmake from 2.8.1 to 2.8.4), so I need more time to
investigate. I report back to you next week with more info. I am still
on kde 4.4.4 here, so I might have to upgrade kde as well, i guess.

cheers
