Yes, it is available.  My Qt installation is in /usr/lib/qt, so I can point
Gideon
to look in /usr/lib/qt/doc and it handles the Qt docs quite nicely.  The
same applies for
KDE, as long as I create the KDE docs when I install KDE.

The basic outline is there, but it is going to require some time to write.

I couldn't agree more.  I switched from RPMs to source about a year ago and
I couldn't be happier.  And KDE3.1 with antialiasing is most impressive!
