 Only partly: The version number of the source got used from the latest.
This is immensly misleading, because especially in this case it makes
the link going to the wrong source code which isn't able to compile
kmail at all.

 I have no objection to use the information from the widest used version
(although the latest would make more sense to me), but please use *all*
information from the widest used version, then, not only part of it.

 Not really :)   It uses kdenetwork because it is used on more
architectures, but it doesn't use the *version* of kdenetwork that
includes kmail. Using the Sources: line from the widest used version but
the Version: from latest is simply wrong and creates errors. Use them
from the same, pretty please :)

 So long,
Alfie
