Well, yes and no. Debian package info in the core source package doesn't mean 
it's provided for other packages. You can build debian packages right out of 
CVS but for other distributions packaging of the core kde modules depend on 
the work of the packagers - and they don't maintain their spec files in our 
CVS.
