Hi again,
thanks for your response, but this doesn't seem to help here. 
I now created a new ("empty") Qt2.x SDI project, made a distribution and tried 
to compile it -- same problem.
It works if I run it from within Kdevelop; when I try to compile the tarball, the moc
files are not created/compiled/linked.
I made some experiments (let's say my project is under /home/mh/tartest;
the gunzipped/untared tarball is under /opt/sourcepackages/tartest-0.1)
I copied makefile.in from /home/mh/tartest/tartest to 
/opt/sourcepackages/tartest-0.1/tartest. Now it works without a problem.
(at least I hope that's the only thing I did)
Is this a bug or am I doing something really stupid?
Bye Michael
