Thanks Aurélien, talking to Allee we've reache the conclusion I've wrongly
increased the major, will see if changing back or not though. 
Anyway something has to be fixed into libkipi, and
this i the right time to do that. Main efforts will be done to trunk soon,
i believe, since kde 4.0 has branched already and kde 4.1 should be the one
will probably be by default for distros (4.0 is too young i believe), but for the next
few months kde 3.x is important yet and we must take care of that.
