Yes, I was getting this error when I tried to build without KDE.

Well, for me it was not that easy, but after playing a bit and by using some
workarounds I got it to compile. This is something that must be fixed.

Well, not that I program using qt, but maybe you can have a look at kiax, it
is made using qt and it's systray works ok on my icewm as well as other
systrays, and it doesn't need kde :-) I don't know if kiax is a good
example, I have never looked at its code, it is just that it is one of the
programs I use that I know is qt powered and uses systray, maybe there are
better examples, I don't know.

Ok, great to know you keep the non kde users in mind ;-)

I suppose we'll be making two packages out of twinkle then, a full powered
one and a non kdeish one, isn't it, mark?

Thanks for answering, regards...
