Hi Stephan, what do you want to tell me here? Is this kind of humour?

Maybe I have to express myself more clearly.

According to the experience taken from the last three beta releases a lot
of errors tend only to pop up if you try to install from scratch (aka no
previous old stuff in $KDEDIR etc.) E.g. wrong path to the documentation
might not be noticed if old documentation is still lying around in the
corret place.

Actually in case there are last minute changes in kdelibs due to a
showstopper you should make them available via a snapshot. (In this case I
will invoke the mirror script manually)

YOurs,
