I have the same problem, also installed the KDE CVS packages and now back to 
using SID.  I do the following: if you want to work in QT Designer, make a 
symlink like this: 

tom@tompie:~$ cat /usr/bin/addkdewidgetslink
ln -s /usr/lib/kde3/plugins/designer/kdewidgets.so /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/
designer/kdewidgets.so

and if you want to compile your stuff in gideon for example, to prevent it 
from showing lots of output about "... is already in ..." then you should 
remove the link again:

tom@tompie:~$ cat /usr/bin/removekdewidgetslink
rm /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/designer/kdewidgets.so

Don't know if this will work for you, but it does for me :-)
