There is no way of telling if something is only used by kdepim if it is not in 
kdepim.
In this particual case it is part of libakonadi-kde which is almost certainly 
used in other places.

Same as for kdelibs, i.e. part of the platform.
We keep libs for which we don't want or can't keep strict compatibility 
requirements inside the same module as the app.
