I've started packaging the KF5 Technical Preview for Kubuntu and I'd really like the packages to be able to be picked up by Debian.

I'm putting them into our experimental PPA.

https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/experimental/+packages

Please take a look and let me know of any changes needed.

some questions:
 do -dbg packages get a library version?  libfoo5-dbg or libfoo-dbg (or is Debian getting automatically made dbgsym any time soon?)
 debian/copyright Source point to git archive or https://projects.kde.org/projects/frameworks/kcodecs
 use multi-arch: same?
 attica has same source package in qt4 version, renamed to attica-kf5   but is kf5attica better? (alternativly they could both be built out of the same source as I've done with phonon but that gets complex quickly).
