I originally thought you could sed this thing but I don't think that will work.
I am still trying to see if the kio_ksvn is functionally equivalent of kio_svn.
If tdesdk will use kio_ksvn for it's svn functions (which I can't think why it
wouldn't), then it will simply use the files provided by tdesvn. However,
reading, tdesdk and tdesvn use their own implementations of the kio slave, so
there is a chance that they are not functionally equivalent. The kdedevelopers
for kde4 haven't solve the issue. Debian and kubuntu have gone back and forth
creating 'kio_plugins' that hold these files.

The current opensuse 3.5.10 eliminates the .protocol files from kdesdk and just
uses those provided by kdesvn, so that seems like a workable solution. I haven't
looked at their patches yet, but I have looked at the files provided by both the
kdesvn and kdesdk rpms.

I think rather than split packaging, we just drop the .protocol files from
tdesdk and make tdesvn a dependency of tdesdk. The tdesvn package is only 1.8M
so it's not a lot of overhead for someone who wants just tdesdk and not tdesvn.
Otherwise, I think it is hack the code time and patch tdesdk to put its protocol
files in a new location.



Well OK,

I am not working on tde at all any more as I have standardized on KDE4.

Good luck with your project.
