Serghei,

  That is the problem here -- the .pc files ARE correct:

[23:44 nirvana:/mnt/nv1/home/chroot/david/opt/trinity/lib/pkgconfig] # cat
dbus-tqt.pc
prefix=/opt/trinity
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: dbus-tqt-1
Description: D-BUS TQt bindings
Version: 0.7
Requires: dbus-1
Libs: -L${libdir}  -ldbus-tqt-1 -ldbus-1 -lpthread -lrt
Cflags: -I${includedir} -I${includedir}/dbus-1.0

  So according to the .pc file, the cmake setup should include the correct
string allowing make to find -ldbus-tqt-1. That Libs: string, as returned by the
.pc file should be:

-L${libdir} -....

  Which is '-L${prefix}/lib -....'  Or with the correct substitutions is:

-L/opt/trinity/lib -ldbus-tqt-1 -ldbus-1 -lpthread -lrt
       ^^^^^^^

  However, the cmake setup does not include the correct -L${libdir}, instead it
provides:

'-L/opt/tqt3/lib':
        ^^^^

<snip>
CMakeFiles/tdeinit_kpowersave-shared.dir/suspenddialog.cpp.o
CMakeFiles/tdeinit_kpowersave-shared.dir/suspend_Dialog.cpp.o -L/opt/tqt3/lib
-ldbus-tqt-1 -ldbus-1 -lpthread -lrt /opt/trinity/lib/libkio.so.4.2.0 -lhal
-lXext -lXtst -lXss /opt/trinity/lib/libtdeui.so.4.2.0 -lfreetype -lfontconfig
/opt/trinity/lib/libtdesu.so.4.2.0 -lutil
<snip>

  So somewhere in cmake it is pulling the wrong ${prefix}. I think this has to
be fixed in cmake because the .pc file IS correct. Where exactly is this done in
cmake? I think it is checking the wrong .pc file or something like that.
