You can not add a new dependency for KDE 4.4 the day before the release without
testing. I consider it a new feature which is not allowed since ages. for KDE
4.5 I've planned to add it to the release schedule explicitly to make it even
more clear. It is too late in the cycle for 4.4 to change this dependency.
Really. Some packagers can not add a new dependency to their repository in one
day and have prepared the KDE 4.4 packaging based on the 4.4 release candidates
we have given them. Please don't do this.

+1
Unacceptable imho.

Distro's who have provided RC's to their users are now more or less obliged to
run that script. Virtuoso was made a hard dependency (at least for anyone
compiling kdepim) so all svn users also need to update.
