# The prefix you use here should match where KDE is installed.
# If your distribution doesn't use /usr/man (many use /usr/share/man) like
# Slackware does, change that below.
# If you use XFree86 and not X.org's X, leave off --with-xorg below.

# If you run other browsers that will work with the plugin, you may want to
# copy or symlink the /usr/local/firefox/plugins/kaffeineplugin.* files into
# your other browser's plugin directory.  You can also run 'make distclean',
# and then run configure, make, make install for the other browser(s).  If
# you run this below, it will copy the plugins to some common locations for
# firefox/netscape/mozilla if they exist.
