In this case LGPL 2.1 is the common denominator so it's all good but there are plenty of other frameworks with LGPL 2 only code and other variations.  You can read the debian/copyright files in the kubuntu packaging to get a summary for all the packages https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/experimental/+packages (although even this probably includes some simplifications and missed out bits)

Hmm, thanks for pointing that out.  I should investigate the relicensing script to see how far we can standardise (preferably on the 2,2.1,3,eV version).
