Well, there may be a problem in recipes. There is xcalibrate and
libxcalibrate. Both provide the same library. Some recipes use
xcalibrate in DEPENDS, some use libxcalibrate. libxcalibrate does not
compile on images with xserver-kdrive.

I think that the fix will require complete removal of xcalibrate:
- xcalibrate_20060312.bb and xcalibrate_cvs.bb seems to be no more used.
- xcalibrate_git.bb needs to be moved to libxcalibrate_git.bb using its
version.
- libxcalibrate probably needs to be moved to model specific directories
(kdrive images need different version than xorg versions).
- Update preferred versions for particular image.
- and finally libxcalibrate should use standard git PV/PR allowing
future upgrade.

Alternative solution: Fix the latest libxcalibrate to work with bothe
Xorg and kdrive.
