There's no easy way out unfortunately, but here's how:

1. Open the .kdevprj file for your project in an editor (make sure the
project is not open in KDevelop - your changes will be overwritten in
that case). Find the [General] section and then find the makefiles=
entry. Order all the Makefile.am's for your subdirectories in the
correct linking order.

2. Open up configure.in in an editor. At the bottom of this file, make
sure you have the same ordering of makefiles as above.

3. Open up your project in KDevelop, do a "Update all Makefile.am"
(right click on the root item in the Files view), run automake/autoconf
+ configure and you should be all set.

4. If you didn't get the dependencies right and your project still
doesn't link, goto 1 :)
