Version: 1.10.92, subversion trunk (using KDE 4.1.3) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I've downloaded the source code for kmail from KDE's subversion repository (svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdepim/kmail) and, to my dismay, cmake choked on a couple of problems: missing a cmake macro and the cmake_minimum_required() definition. On the other hand, cmake runs flawlessly when, instead of running it on kmail source alone, running it on the entire kdepim source stack. That is a bit excessive. That means that a user who wishes to build kmail from source is forced to also build applications like akregator and kalarm, which isn't exactly a light task. It would be great if it was possible to build the source code from kmail's subversion repository without having to build the entire kdepim software stack.
This won't be changed, the kdepim modules are linked and depends on each other. However, you may disable a few ones (Kpilot, Kitchensync, knode, kjots...)
