..ok, but this fails.  And, there is a ~/.kadu/lock, is this the
lockfile or is there another lockfile somewhere else?  Fails even 
when removing ~/.kadu/lock.  Also, is there any English, German, 
Italian, Dutch, Scandinavian or French docs on kadu 'n GG?

..I'm root on the box.  This drops it home into /usr/local, if done the
classic way?  And why this non-debian way of doing this?

..willco, after these early comments, I'd appreciate clarification on
the above though.
