Okay, I did a make install, and the behavior has not changed (still no 
tooltip option on the help menu).  ~/.kde/share/apps/KimDaba does not 
exist, so there is no rc file in it.  During startup kimdaba complains 
about the lack of an rc file.  It says:

shawn at zedd:~$ kimdaba
kimdaba: WARNING: KXMLGUIClient::setXMLFile: cannot find .rc file 
kimdabaui.rc
kimdaba: WARNING: KLocale: trying to look up "" in catalog. Fix the program
kimdaba: WARNING: KLocale: trying to look up "" in catalog. Fix the program

I do have one other idea about what may be causing it... I didn't set 
- --prefix when configuring, so make install installs to the default 
location /usr/local/kde, which is not where kde lives on my Debian sid 
system.  Could this matter?  To get it in the path I just symlinked /usr/
local/kde/bin/kimdaba to /usr/local/bin.

Manually copying /usr/local/kde/share/apps/kimdaba/kimdabaui.rc to ~/.kde/
share/apps/kimdaba/ causes kimdaba to stop complaining and shows the 
option in the help menu.

So, it looks like a pathing issue.  I probably need to figure out what 
options to give to configure so that it will install in the "right" 
places...  I presume that will allow kimdaba to find the global rc file, 
rather than having to use a user-specific file.

Thanks

	Shawn.
