as mentioned in my last mail... I don't think that admin should be 
inside a tarball...

so a call like "make -f admin/...." wouldn't be possible.
The admin dir is only necessary if you want the user of your application 
(from the tarball), should modify your sources like a developer of your 
application (e.g. adding sourcefiles to it, etc.).

As long as KDevelop uses "make dist" and not "make cvs-clean" and "tar 
cvzf ..." this principle shouldn't change...

I still don't think that there is the need to patch the spec file...
but if it were, so you should use
make -f Makefile.dist

give the developer the possibility to have a project dependant hook 
(e.g. for messages).
