This test only works for OpenSUSE - other distros use other names for the
kdelibs package. But actually (I forgot to say this) I wasn't wanting to
know how to find the KDE version - I did it using kde4-config.

My problem was how to put conditional code in the %install section. Your
syntax does seem to work, but only if the %if ... %endif is at the end of
the %install section. If it's in the middle, the rest of the %install
statements seem either to be ignored or to be treated as if they were part
of the %if ... %endif (I'm not sure which yet). This could pose problems
if two or more independent conditions needed to be used for different
groups of install statements.
