[Kmymoney-devel] import libraries

[Alvaro Soliverez]

Hello Chris,
No problem.

For clarification:
The 4.6.x got branched from master two years ago. Even if we backport
a lot of fixes, only master got the new features. Now, 4.6.x is at the
end of its life, hence why we insist so much on you using master
branch.

Regards,
Alvaro
