So compile your own. I'm sorry, but I am getting tired of people
complaing about this. You have the make file, and you have directions on
http://www.kde.org - try it.

They worked for other people, and if a damn package is missing why didn't
you send me an email message and remind me to put it out there. It isn't
like my email isn't in every readme, on a ton of packages, and so on.

Also, I just checked and if you ftp to the site the scripts are
there. ftp://us.mandrakesoft.com/pub/kde . I am not going to re-write the
index page right now, because with any luck I may be able to put together
an new build in the next day.
