Thanks for your effort and for letting me know of this before I duplicated 
your effort (I intended to do exactly that right now).

One thing I should note is that I'm unhappy with the renaming of several KDE 
applications to more artsy and less intuitive names in KDE 4.x:

* khexedit ==> okteta.

* kpdf => Okular.

And now:

* ksokoban ==> magazinier.

In any case, after I did:

<<<
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/playground/games/magazynier
>>>

and ran cmake .. in the build/ I got the following errors:

I guess I need kdegames-trunk... do I need anything else from trunk?

Thanks, I'll take a look (if I will be able to build it.).
