There's nothing in kdelibs about this. There's something in
kdebase-runtime.

Thats the problem. Apparently few others did. If you hadn't blogged
about that new thing I certainly wouldn't have known about the new
dependency. Also you're adding a new dependency that is two days old or
so, thats simply rude to fellow co-developers that are working on
kdelibs too. You didn't give anybody any time to even look at this new
thing (data files or code doesn't matter). At least a week should be
given to people before adding a new dependency. If the new dep wasn't
ready in time to do that, maybe you should've just waited. And quite
frankly, copying around a couple of data files is not that bad compared
to the mess we have now (people needing to hunt down a new dep, broken
unreviewed cmake files).
