Erm.. not sure how to solve this except by perhaps waiting on those
packages until KDE 3.2 goes into Debian in about 6-8 weeks. What you
mentioned might work ok, but I'm not sure.

Does using a builddir fix the problem, or does it still modify them. If
it doesn't help then go ahead and remove the .gmo files. I see the .gmo
files in the source of vorbis-tools as well so that might be normal, you
could ask on the main debian-devel list as well to see what is normally
done about it.
