just for anybody who is actually trying to build and run u2...

instructions we should all be familiar with:
cvs -z3 co umbrello2
cd umbrello2
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure --whatever
make

and i have to add the following too:
su
make install

the MOF plugin installs model-1.4.xmi (renamed from mof-1.4.xmi) into the 
appdata director ($KDEROOT/share/apps/umbrello2). it's needed by that plugin.

in one of the rc files you need to add the the following lines. you could add 
it to $KDEDIR/share/config/umbrello2rc (which necessitates creating the file) 
or ~/.kde/share/config/umbrello2rc

[Startup Actions]
Load=libu2_xmi,libu2_model

this will basically tell the application to load those libraries. loading xmi 
doesn't really do anything, but loading model will cause the xmi parser to 
load the installed XMI file - creating an instance of the actual MOF. neat.

to run it:

umbrello2

it's not impressive.
