I agree to ship as many things as possible ourselves, or make them
otherwise independent. Because then distro packagers have problems
packaging it and users then end up with 1.2.0 in some recent distro
and they are reporting bugs against 1.2.0 and we just reply to update
to newer version and try again, but they actually can't, because thier
distro doesn't package newer version, because of the libs being part
of KDE trunk (and they don't package trunk stuff). So for the sake of
the users, I think we should ship as many things as possible
ourselves.
