I am running testing too, that why I mentioned the needed package was in
Sid only for now, I think the one in testing is for KDE3, but I may very
well be wrong (I just went for the unstable package that says "kde4" on
the tin ;-) ). You can download it or add Sid to your sources.list and
do some "pinning" to install this one package.
