You need to update the seeds [1] (obviously you want the Kubuntu seed, not
Ubuntu desktop, but you get the idea). As a kubuntu-dev, you have access.
Then after the seeds are updated, you'll need to update kubuntu-meta.
Download the source package and update update.cfg, then run the update script.
That should generate a new set of updated meta-packages that you just upload
as usual.
