Expected Results:  
successful installation of the package


The problem seems to be that the macro is defined with different number of arguments in different places:

@kde:

has anyone changed his mind about the kdeenablefinal use flag? As far as I recall, we masked the use flag because no one was willing to support it and because it simply didn't work.
I'm adding a comment here in the Nth bug Erik opened about this, as this was the "one too many" report that pushed me to react.

@Erik:
I'm going to (test and) proxy commit upstream those patches in the 28th, which is two days before the 4.5.5 tagging. I follow kde-devel and a bunch of other kde mls ftr. Also, please consider joining us.
@Jorge:
if Erik wants to support it and has patches, I don't mind at all having it masked

This particular build error is said to be fixed, but only in the 1.2 branch.

[Comment 4 Theo Chatzimichos (RETIRED) 2011-02-05 13:43:34 UTC]

1.2 it tree, should be fixed
