Hi,

in the past the KDE on Windows port has been faced with install path 
related issues caused by the fact that in opposite to unix/linx the end 
user install location differs from the build time install location. 
While several issue has been solved in the past, others may be still 
present.

Patrick von Reth for example reported shortly ago that there are 
problems with dbus service files generated by the build system. The 
generated install location points to the build install location, which 
will not work on end users workstation.

A few days ago Alexander Neundorf, the maintainer of the KDE 
buildsystem, asked me if there are still such problems, so if anyone 
know about open install location related problems, please report.

Regards
  Ralf
