Thomas, I would recommend you do what you did for v0.5.0b and upload to experimental. That way at least there will be a fixed version in the Debian archive albeit this won't fix the version in unstable. Unstable isn't supposed to be fully working all the time, hence the name. We are using experimental as a staging ground for KDE4.2 to see what works/ what doesn't work etc. As you can no doubt appreciate the transition to KDE4.2 is a complex beast which does take time in the planning. There was an earlier suggestion that we just dump and run and get everything into unstable as quickly as possible and work out the mess later. That wasn't taken up and we are using experimental and planned migration of libs & apps. Mark
