That is a long-term bug in their configure script which
apparently doesn't add very many places to look for libjpeg (or
other so-called "non-standard" places) in.  It's been around for
about 2 years, before I started maintaining Qt2/KDE2 ports in the
ports tree.  It may well get fixed at some point in the default
configure script, but for now, we get around it with
CONFIGURE_ENV and CONFIGURE_ARGS.  See ports/Mk/bsd.kde.mk.

In any case, Andy was referring to bugs that affected things like
antialiasing of fonts, and this fact was quite visible in our
beta testing of KDE 2.2.2 / Qt 2.3.2.  So I downgraded it back to
2.3.1 and applied a few patches to improve it.  No patches from
Trolltech or KDE that were in 2.3.2 vs 2.3.1, though.  They were
just too trivial to bother.
