FYI (if you are a packager) as part of restructuring kde-l10n-common and language-pack-kde-common to be not weirdly intertangled a new branch kubuntu-l10n-common was created. this new branch has the sole purpose of providing a location for both other branches to store common logic bits (it's a library if you will).
general usage of the respective branches should not change with the expection that most of the configs are stored in kubuntu-l10n-comon now (namely what type of release you want to build against stable/unstable). additionally both branches have had their dependency handling moved to dh_substvars style, meaning there is a file debian/substvars that defines substitation vars and inside that file the actually common subsitution (from aaaFOObbb) happens. this allows much nicer dependency list creation inside the respective scripts as you do not have to worry about where the new value will be inserted (dh_substvars does a good job at figuring out when to drop commas etc. please note that language-pack-kde-common does have any means to know which version of KDE it should check against, yet the decision which packs are generated is entirely based on what languages are available upstream. so, there can theoretically be a divergence between what languages kde-l10n-common and language-pack-kde-common create. this may change in the future (alas, it would require an additional config value defining the latest version which is "slighly" annoying). other suggestions welcome. I ran a couple of test tries and the results should be fine(tm), should you notice problems with the new scripting please notify me asap.
