Hello,

  Is it possible to include a new configure option to avoid the use of
deprecated methods ?

  I think of it as defining a DEPRECATED (or something like that) and
putting
all the deprecated methods (more than 300 in kdelibs ) between 

#ifdef DEPRECATED
  deprecated method
#endif

  I see two advantages on this:
* There is a simple way to ensure that all the kde pakcages will use
  non-deprecated methods
* If there is someone that does not care about compatibility with kde3.0, 
  the size of the kde will be reduced (asuming 1k per method, in more than
300k).

Regards.
