No, sorry, I wasn't unclear about that I meant this in conjunction
with point 1.; an Idea would be to make one list for any "initial"
release, and for each subsequent release another list that says
which packages have been migrated to cmake meanwhile.
(One point why I thought this is all about R14 is that the package
names are given as tdelibs, tdebase, etc., while the package files
I downloaded (from http://copernicus.mirrorservice.org/sites/trinitydesktop.org/trinity/releases/3.5.13.2/) are still named kdelibs, kdebase, etc.)
Another idea, IMHO even better would be a table, one row per package,
one column per Trinity release, stating the respective build tool to
use as (a)utoconf, (c)make or (m)anual --- just an idea.

Okay, the logs are from a run in which I passed "-ldl -lpthread -lX11
-lXext -lz -ljpeg -lmng -lpng" already. There's not a lot missing,
but this makes the error log quite some bytes shorter.
Thanks a lot!
