Important if updating from versions < 0.4.5
--------------------------------------------

KWlan now uses one configuration file per interface for wpa_supplicant.
So, you have to recreate your profiles or cop /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf to
~/.kde/share/config/kwlan.interfacename.

Important for users using sudo (for example Kubuntu users)
----------------------------------------------------------

Please configure kwlan using --enable-sudo. This ensures that kwlan uses sudo to do 
tasks that need priviledged mode.


Compiling problem on Suse Linux
-------------------------------
There seems to be a problem configuring kwlan usink automake-1.9. As workaround,
create a symbolic link to automake-1.9 (ln -s /usr/bin/automake-1.9 /usr/bin/automake-1.7) 
and enable the following configure option: --disable-shared
