As I stated in the first sentence I am back on Oneiric and will stay 
there until KDE moves to 4.9 and is in the Precise repos. And I read 
some good reviews of it. KDEPIM 4.8.3 felt like one big regression from 
4.7.4 and I use KDEPIM extensively.

I downloaded the package from Precise but as can be expected it has 
dependencies Oneiric can not fulfill. The PPA is outdated and I have not 
managed to get it to work so I want to try the git code.
