Dunno yet ;-) but if you have the sources of kde2.1beta, you could look
that up yourself and help fix it. It´s a rule for creating a dummy
rc.cpp file from the XML Gui file that contains the strings for the
menubar/toolbar stuff, so these get into the pot file. Maybe there´s
just the call missing, could you look that up ? Also I know that there´s
a script I added to the kdevelop distribution that does that exactly,
also placed in the kdesdk/scripts module that I copied into kdevelop.
