+If configure claims Qt cannot be found, have a look at http://www.trolltech.com
+to get a copy of latest Qt 3.3.x version.
+
+
+Debugging
+---------
+You can use --enable-debug with the configure script, if you want to have
+debug code in your KDE apps and libs. This will ensure useful and more
+verbose backtraces, but will require a lot more disk space.
