I thought of this for a long time and gave the first stab to it now..

It is meant to be a way to easy update the versions required of several core 
packages in kde4 packaging - especially build depends.

How to use it?

First time is a bit hard. control needs to be copied to control.in  -  and 
versions to be controlled by this needs to be changed.

Like this:
-Build-Depends: cdbs (>= 0.4.51), debhelper (>= 6), quilt, cmake,
- kdepimlibs5-dev (>= 4:4.0.68), libphonon-dev (>= 4:4.0.68),
+Build-Depends: cdbs (>= CDBS_MIN_VER), debhelper (>= 6), quilt ( >= 
QUILT_MIN_VER), cmake(>= CMAKE_MIN_VER),
+ kdepimlibs5-dev (>= KDEPIMLIBS_UPSTREAM_VERSION), libphonon-dev (>= 
KDELIBS_UPSTREAM_VERSION),

after that, run make -f debian/cdbs/control.mk update-versions  and look at 
the new debian/control - and see if it is as expected.

Each time a update of a version is required, just change the values in 
cdbs/versions.mk  (and we might also want to make more of them fixed in the 
future)

If we decide to use this on all packages, we could hook it in as a part of the 
clean target ...

And some more robustness might also be required.

Comments welcome.
