I have seen the ITP and marked to answer to the bug number, doing it now (bug
Cc'ed).
As you might know already, after Lenny, we are replacing KDE 3 with KDE 4,
this transition will be quick but replacing all kde 3 apps for kde 4 apps,
will take sime (surely too much time). So in the meantime we'll need to keep 
kdelibs (and part of kdebase), but the ultimate goal is getting ride of that
too (and Qt3 too!) 
Even if you app only needs kdelibs, it is an app that is *integrated* with kde
3.5... I really think it is best wait until it is ported to KDE 4 then package
it.
