The configure script should directly use kde-config, without waiting for the
user to do so.
It's one of the goal of configure scripts to detects such prefixes, the user
hasn't to do this.
It won't requires more work to the user because kde-config is already in common
parts of KDE, so if the users compiles a KDE app, he will need the package that
owns kde-config at some step.
Other systems such as pkg-config can be used, but kde-config is certainly more
accurate for use with KDE.
So, can someone give a valid point not to call kde-config from the configure
script ?
