[kde-solaris] package relocation

Relocating a package:

pkgadd -R

(man pkgadd)

relocating and symlinking is fine, as long as all the required
libraries
and binaries can be found, and you edit the startkde script to see
this
root path instead of /usr/local. if you relocate /usr/local, you can
edit
the *.la files with sed and replace /usr/local with whatever
the new root path is.

i do not see libart2_lgpl, SDL, the audio libraries or the gtk+/glib
packages
for example. this will cause many endless problems down the road.

using different libraries of a different version built differently
will
also cause problems.
