I don't understand why it could be a reason. AFAIK there's no rule in the Dfsg about no include a package if upstream has not released a tool to migrate the configuration from one version to another. The Qt/kde team work hard from the migration from kde3 to kde4 with the kaboom tool. If now we don't have one, we cannot obey to the packagers to develop one. However I could understand to no include it in wheeze to avoid a big amount of bug reports in the migration process. But, one solution could be include the tools of kdepim2 with another name and a readme (as others packages has included) with some explanation. Not all the debian users are squeeze users that need a perfect migration from a old version to a new one. There are a lot of new users, or users that change from gnome to kde or from another distro to debian and would like kde4 FULL. > But we will provide packages for the curious testers like you, just after > the team finishes the rest of the 4.8.4 transition, which has higher > priority due to the wheezy freeze. Perfect, but please put it in some way in wheezy. Debian deserve a full kde4, especially with kdepim.
