## make failed for me with this error:
# /opt/kde/include/ksslpkcs7.h:32:27: openssl/pkcs7.h: No such file or
# directory
## so I ran this:
# ( cd smoke/kde ; make CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include )
## and then 'make' again

## make also failed for me with this error:
# /opt/kde/include/ksslutils.h:34:26: openssl/x509.h: No such file or
