Hi!

Ok. I checked it now and is all right.

Your package depends of the kdelibs-bin, that depends of the other
packages. One these packages install the directory that will be
linked. You can see it installing the kdelibs-bin. So, please, add a
lintian override with a comment to these messages.

No problem. I can wait. About quilt, if you have a problem in
'Makefile', you can do:

quilt new fix_makefile
quilt add Makefile
<edit the Makefile>
quilt refresh
quilt header -e
<edit the header>[1]
quilt pop -a

Please, read about new, add, refresh, header and pop.

[1] A example of the header:

Description: fix the Examples path and countries.csv place.

You can use Alioth, but the reply to request can take a bit. You can
use an external git, request the access and migrate your repository.
