yes, thanks Aaron.
I'm sorry Bernhard but I can't give an opinion on zoom code being this or 
that, I am just clueless. As did Ben, I was building stuff and noticed the 
break (just before the beta tag) and it did not seem straightforward for me.

Aaron also asks if this can be moved to the Marble repository, which would be 
more logical anyway. What do you think?

You're a bit harsh when you say you should not fix "unfamiliar code" in 
"foreign repositories": well yes in fact you should at least care. This is 
KDE, a team work :)
