Hi Mark,

yeah, oh, well.  I stumbled over this last night too :(

One option is to remove relibtoolization ;)

The NN_whatever patches are from common-patches of pkg-kde.
I assume that there are already updated version available
that work with latest admin dir from KDE stable branch.

	patch --dry-run -p0 < new_patch_from_common_patches

and if it works replace the current version debian/patches


No difficult part:  patches/14_Makefile.am_use_only_used_libs.diff
AFAIR (shame on me I did not commit upstream).   Mhmm, maybe replace
-lqt3-mt  with $LIB_QT.  Maybe it applies then again.  If not it
needs to be tweaked by hand.

The buildprep diff is generated with a script of same name in pkg-kde
repo.  Everytime something  changes in a Makefile* or configure* file
it need to be rerun.

Due to new plugins the relibtoolization is not complete and may fail.
4_Makefile.am_use_only_used_libs.diff  should give a good idea who to
tweak the new Makefile.am's

You can also check pkg-kde-talk list.  There was a new script that
does much automaticly.

Sorry to being a bit terse.  I want to nail down this bloody digikam
autorotate bug tonight that's fixed upstream but not in the deb build :(

P.S. feel free to ping me, allee, on IRC #digikam (for shorter turnaround times ;)
