  For the record, those packages aren't shipped officially by the distribution you are using.

  No. You need to get over the fact that kdelibs4 development is *done* and deal, period. Qt4 is EOL, kdelibs4 is EOL. It is time to move on.

KDE4 will probably stay as a base for a while.
  
  Why not joining the effort of the people that are working to get those applications on Windows, rather than relying on unmaintained software? By distributing Qt 4.x based software we are exposing users to risks, given it is completely unmaintained.
