Hi Kristo,

the fact, that FC4 puts the synce-development headers in /usr/include could 
lead to serious problems. For example the librra-development package contains 
a file timezone.h. Also kde provides a file called timezone.h. But those 
files are completely different files. So we need to distinguish this two 
files, which is done by placing the librra timezone.h file in the 
subdirectory /usr/include/rra/ during installation. A c/c++ file depending on 
the librra timezone.h file has to include it by
#include <rra/timezone.h>
This assures, that the correct file is included.
So i will recommend to also repackage the basic synce-libraries correctly.
Of course, it would be possible to make synce-kde and syncekonnector compile 
but i strongly discourage from it!

What do you think should/could be done? Is there a hope to update the 
synce-libraries in FC4?

regards
voc
