That explains my mistake. So the kubuntu package set only covers the KDE subset from main and allows Kubuntu developers to upload those without being a core-dev. Any KDE packages that are in universe aren't part of this package set. (The same applies for Gnome packages in main and ubuntu-desktop.) I assumed that the kubuntu package set has a broader scope and covered all packages that are primarily used on KDE desktops. Are there any plans/ideas to expand the scope of the kubuntu package set or will it stay like that forever? > Are GTK/Gnome packages better suited to MOTU or ubuntu-desktop?

To be honest, I don't know as I seem to not fully understand how we use package sets currently. > Qt/KDE packages are not very different than most other packages in > Universe.

With this new knowledge, I agree with you that someone who works on KDE/Qt packages in universe should go for MOTU and not be redirected to kubuntu-dev.
