Same problem here with gentoo linux. KDE is installed from the gentoo packages 
and kdepim is installed from HEAD in /opt/kdepim-cvs. To solve it, I have a 
file in /etc/env.d/ which sets the paths for kde

/etc/env.d/48kdepaths:
[...]
PATH=/opt/kdepim-cvs/bin:/usr/kde/3.2/bin
LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.2/lib:/opt/kdepim-cvs/lib
KDEDIRS=/opt/kdepim-cvs:/usr

On gentoo startup env-update generates a file /etc/ld.so.conf with the libs in 
it
[...]
/opt/kdepim-cvs/lib
/usr/kde/3.2/lib

That's all. But I don't know, if debian has a similar mechanism.
