I downloaded the kdeedu source package and I noticed there was a patch in the 
'/debian/patches' directory with  the name 'disable_indi' it contains:


--- a/kstars/kstars/CMakeLists.txt
+++ b/kstars/kstars/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -1,6 +1,5 @@
 add_subdirectory( skycomponents )
 add_subdirectory( widgets )
-add_subdirectory( indi )
 add_subdirectory( tools )
 add_subdirectory( data )
 add_subdirectory( icons )

Also I noticed 'series' which says:

#disable_indi
97_fix_target_link_libraries.diff

Am I right in concluding that the current version of kdeedu is not supposed to 
contain a working indi?

I compiled kdeedu with the 'disable_indi' file removed, this compiled fine, but 
installing the new packages gave no improvement.

Off topic:
I'm not very familiar with debian packageing, is there a quick way to just 
build kstars instead of the whole of kdeedu?
