There would be still times when meta-kde version could be out of sync
with kde in sarge (since they can migrate independently). Since meta-kde
doesn't come from kde sources, and looking at how meta-gnome2 is done,
I chose to sheepishly follow. Chris also agreed with changes, so I went
forward. As an afterthought, I could have remembered, that not everone
is on the #debian-kde channel these days, and Josh is right that the
epoch increase is uneccessary.
