  Indeed, the Makefile is at fault here, assuming that the installation
  dir for includes is always $KDEDIR/include, since they can be elsewhere
  (e.g., in Debian they are under /usr/include/kde).

  Well, these would be workarounds for the real bug. Instead, I'll send
  a patch upstream so that the issue gets fixed in the proper place.
  Also, though I can imagine you already use some kind of workaround
  yourself, I recommend that you invoke make like this:

    $ make -f admin/Makefile.common includedir=/usr/include/kde package-messages

  Notice the includedir=/usr/include/kde extra bit.

  Thanks, and sorry again for the delay,
