libtool archives by their full pathnames, as noted in the libtool.info
file. This makes kdemultimedia2 work properly with buildlink2 during
installation when relinking occurs.
generalise the linker flags used to export symbols by setting them on
a per-OS basis.

Remove `-p' from mkdir arguments, it is already part of ${MKDIR}.
While here substitute a couple of ${PREFIX} by `%D' in
`@exec ${MKDIR} ...' lines and add a couple of missing `%D' in such lines too!
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

Closes pkg/14728 from Mark Davies <mark@mcs.vuw.ac.nz>. Changes from him
with updates from myself.
From www.kde.org... The principal improvements over KDE 2.2.1, release two
months ago, include:
o security-related
- SSL certificate loading
- symlink vulnerability in .wmrc access by KDM introduced in 2.2
- security problem with eFax (used by klprfax)
- potential problem in PAM invocation by KDM
- potential harmful side-effect of failed KDM session starts
o new features
- added support for CodeWeavers' CrossOver plug-in (provides support
for QuickTime, etc.)
- added support for the wheelmouse for scrolling through the
KGhostview PS/PDF viewer component
- ability to search for multiple patterns at a time in the file
search dialog
- debugging multi-threaded applications with KDevelop
o improvements/fixes
- handling of HTTP links that redirect to FTP
- POST using SSL through a proxy and sending headers through proxies
- saving of recently-selected files in the file dialog
- handling of non-ASCII characters over SMB
- toolbar button captions with certain styles
- selecting items with the mouse in Konqueror
- sorting in Konqueror's textview
- saving current settings as a theme in the theme manager
- crashes in KMail with certain mails
- crash on invoking the KDM chooser
- non-Latin languages with KDevelop
performance
- icon loading optimized
- file dialog speedups
- stop spinning SMB client processes
- handling of large files in Kate
* Use qt2-designer-kde for a uic that understands KDE2 widgets.
* Build and install kmid.
* Check that certain X11 libraries are shared libraries before linking
shared objects against them.
* Fix and sort PLIST.
With apologies to Al I wouldn't know where to start with a summary of the
changes between 2.1 and 2.2.1 - there are just too many. A couple of
hopefully static URLS that contain useful information are
http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelog2_1to2_2.htmlhttp://www.kde.org/announcements/changelog2_2to2_2_1.html
Support for a.out for kde{libs,base} added by me. The libtool/a.out
combination doesn't like the linking of modules into binaries. A better
way of doing this will appear in future versions of KDE/pkgsrc.
