You mean both hard and optionally dependency?

Given that I can't add that to SC 4.5 and that there will be multiple KDevelop 
releases with incompatible plugin versions in the meantime... sorry, don't 
agree that this is the best :)

Hm, what would packagers prefer? How do you (plan to) handle plugins for 
QtDesigner, KDiff/Kompare and others which depend on other libs? Will there be 
some KDevelop-Addon module, next to KDevPlatform and KDevelop? That is what I 
would prefer to have the plugin in. Could be the starting plugin for that 
module?
Where else do you consider all the stuff to end which is currently in 
playground/devtools/kdevelop4-extra-plugins?

Cheers
Friedrich
