Well, this is very bad situation, especially for those you have selected your
debs for their production systems.
I can easily understand why is happening that... credativ is just trying to
make money. Althought you produced these packages while working for them/or
consuming time for producing those packages that has been paid by them,
nothing can stop you from producing them again (it's your work ; just
supported by them).
Anyway, I'm not blaming you.. it's just a very unpleasent situtation. And yes
you're right.. I could get the debs from kde.org... but we all know, that
packages @ ktown are more updated by your efforts ;)
