Version:           1.8 (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

The build system ignores the target directory specified by configure --prefix for
kpartsdesignerplugin.so and .la.

Sorry if kmail is the wrong application, but there is no general application for kdepim.

(Please ignore the weird paths below. This i GoboLinux, the paths will be fixed by
symlinking.)
