[Kde-pim] Building trunk kdepim & runtime, can't find NepomukCore

[Del]

Hello Mike,

My apologies for bad choice of words, it was inconsiderate. You are of course 
free to make whatever design decisions you may choose. That said, build-tool 
would have been a realistic option for a larger audience with a more 
conservative choice of dependencies. This is not unique though, I see it every 
day. I had to do through fire to get the RH6 upgrade, and it took me almost a 
year. The main reason for the upgrade was exactly to get more up-to-date 
software stack. I see developers I collaborate with typically favouring the 
latest and greatest version of whatever framework they are using. For that 
reason we have needed custom installations of up-to-date cmake, python, qt and 
boost for years. It is a challenge, it drains resources that could be used 
elsewhere. It is one of the reasons why moving to a newer version of RH is 
difficult. Please do not feel let down, you have done a fantastic effort on the 
build-tool, and I am convinced there are numerous users using it and loving 
it. Again my apologies, I was basically trying to make a joke not realising 
that I was stepping on anybody.

Cheers,
Del
