So what is going on now? As far as I see global shortcuts are now completely broken.

- If I use "setGlobalShortcutAllowed(true)", I receive a "deprecated" warning, and global shortcuts aren't activated any more.
- If I use "enableGlobalShortcut()", I receive an error (‘class KAction’ has no member named ‘enableGlobalShortcut').

What now?
