Have fun with the hackishness and use Drupal 5!
Wondering what this means???????????

#1
With Drupal 4.7, in order for the karma module to override the comment module's links (e.g., the "x new comment" sort of links attached to nodes), the theme_links function needs to be overridden in template.php with the function provided in the comments. This weakens the usability of this module for non-technical end users. I will think about getting around this somehow, or at least make it clearer to the user via documentation.
Drupal 5 is more flexible in overriding links, so this will not be a problem for the Drupal 5 release. (A dev version coming soon -- only today did I finally take my first step in taking over karma maintenance.)
I will leave this active as a reminder for the time being.
