This is yet another ugly side effect of the infamous "kdelibs freeze". The plan is to copy the 4.7 branch to 4.8 after the last 4.7.x release, but that means that as long as there are 4.7.x releases, the kdelibs version will necessarily be 4.7.x. :-/ We wouldn't have this mess if kdelibs just followed the normal 6-month release cycle as it's supposed to. (The whole point of feature branches is to not disrupt the regular release cycle with long-term development, freezing the whole process to force everyone to work on the branch defeats their whole purpose.)
