Hi!
I've used applyGlobalOverrides in kde4x for the following reason.
Some parts of the official KDE releases depend on external packages (e.g.,
libktorrent, kdevplatform). Now kde47.kdenetwork will use libktorrent built
against kdelibs-4.5.
We have two solutions.
* applyGlobalOverrides;
* manually override quite a few packages in 'callPackage kde4x' call.
Any volunteers for the second way? Any other ideas?
