The openSUSE Builkd service will have version for Fedora >= 8 and openSUSE 
>= 10.3

Thought I'm not yet sure, how to handle the QT issue. Till now I disabled 
the Yahoo stuff, but this is not the best solution :-)

P.S. One note to bvh: the languages for for .po and .fr are much out of date. 
These should be fixed before release. Also if you change/changed any 
strings after the last .de update it needs to be fixed also. Usually you 
need to give the translation approx. a week (or more) with unchanged 
strings before release. This means announce a language freeze and contact 
the translators at this time.
