I started working on this a few months ago, but haven't done any kde work
since unfortunately.

I tried to get my kdelibs updated last night, but ran into trouble because
I'm still using kubuntu gutsy. The shared-mime-info package isn't up to
date enough to compile kdelibs. If I have time I'll upgrade to hardy at the
weekend and get cracking on it again. I think that has all the needed
packages.

I'll let you know of any progress.

Steve.
