Ah I see, overloaded operators, like you said (I've clearly been doing too
much Java recently).

That seems to be a limitation of the import code and should be fixed by
updateing that.

This is one of those issues with KDE that I'm yet to fully understand.
Installing in /usr/local might fix it and installing in /usr almost
certainly would (but you might think that gets in the way of the package
manager).  Maybe the debian-kde mailing list (or IRC channel) could help.
If you do work it out please report back with your findings.
It might have something to do with /etc/kderc.

Sorry I can't be more help,
