I don't intent to offer binaries for Unix/Linux (I find it an impossible 
task), only the source tarball.  So my problem was mainly compilation 
issues with people who have KDE installed and those who don't.  I'll 
only provide binaries (static) for OS X and Windows, and there's no 
problem with kdelibs there.
