s/libsolidinterfaces/libnepomukquery/ in my previous mail.

Similar topics have been on k-c-d before [1][2], but POV of "Laziness and 
unawareness are pretty good excuses for many things." simply prevails. 
libnepomukquery is a pretty good example of that. People simply don't consider 
this important enough.

In this case, our arguments were apparently discarded because "making an 
exception for libkonq doesn't make that much sense". I admit it may be a bit 
late as we do not package pre-releases nowadays (which may be our fault but 
that's the way it is for now). Therefore, I cannot be in supervisor position 
for these things until it is "too late" nor anybody would listen to me.
