Apologies, I was under the misunderstanding that lenny would be shipping KDE4, 
which is why I asked for the removal!

I'm happy to maintain it in Debian, but, as I'm also upstream, I don't have 
time 
to do the upstream either. :(

Again, I apologise, I was under the misapprehension lenny was shipping KDE4, 
and 
only KDE4. 

If someone can give me the details for the process of re-adding this (I presume
