Once you have g++ 3.2 and the -dev packages for QT and KDE, I find that
the following two instructions usually build me a nice .deb from a
KDE program's sources:

  dh_make -t /usr/share/doc/kdelibs4-dev/dh-make
  debuild

In between the two, check out the debian/ directory created by dh_make
and edit the control and other files as much as you find necessary.
This makes for a nicer package, but isn't absolutely necessary if you're
not planning to distribute the package to others.
