Hmm Gilles I also think it was a bad move to put libkipi into kdegraphics. We
can't tell users to compile something against unreleased libraries. 
A lot of packagers / distributions will not update digiKam because of this.

We develop libkipi and such, so we are responsible for releasing it. If we give
it into the hands of KDE, we need to add digiKam into the official KDE
packages, too (which would mean we have a 6 month release cycle).
Or at least make digiKam compile with older versions of the libs.

The way it is right now doesn't work...
If you're downloading Firefox for example, you also don't need to compile some
libs from trunk, if you would have to, FF would be off the surface again and
Chrome or Opera would be the leading "free" Browser.
