fixes problem with installing shortcuts in root dir

a couple of problems with realplayer-8-r4 as pointed out by Matt. This patch
fixes the broken ebuild.

1. No IUSE defined in the ebuild. The patch above adds the line
2. ${KDEDIR} is empty unless you inherit kdebase, which creates all sorts of
problems. So just use /usr/share/applnk as the KDEDIR.
3. ${GNOMEDIR} never existed or defined anywhere. Using gnome1's Gnome
directory, /usr/share/gnome

This has got to be an urgent issue. How come no one tested this before?
Especially the ${GNOMEDIR} bit. I tried grepping for any ebuilds that used
GNOMEDIR and I couldn't come up with anything!

adding myself to cc.

------- Comment #3 From Matt Caesar 2003-02-08 17:42:59 0000 ------- 
The patch seems to work well with KDE and Gnome. I found the links for
realplayer in both the KDE and Gnome start menus.
