Thats with KDE. I think it is a bad thing, but....

I don't know how to figure out exactly which libraries need the .la files 
present and which need not. It is a little bit trial and error for me right 
now. Some libraries that have a numeric .so-version are also loaded 
separately. Those are the ones I have a hard time to catch.

This might also be that some essential file by mistake is in a package that 
you have not installed. Whenever I figure out which file, I put it right. 
In general I find missing files very hard to debug with KDE, since it often 
does not give any intelligable error message.

Probably the same thing.

This is really strange, since I have not entered anything Swedish into the 
build directories. I don't even use kdm. I have to check it out nearer.
Anything is possible.
