The reason is quite simple - kdelibs can not depend on kdelibs/experimental

If you recall, that was one of the stoppers for 4.7 because libplasma depended on experimental libkdeclarative (or whatever the name was) and copying the whole libkactivities in private section (like it was the case for the aforementioned) of kio libraries for one single call to the service is a bit too much.

When libkactivities goes out of experimental, we can change this (although, again, making deps between libs for one extremely simple call is something that can be discussed further)
