Well, kdeutils should not have had a build-dep on lzma, since it uses xz
nowadays as well.

Also, from a quick look at the headers in lzma-dev it appears to me that
stuff created against xz is not compatible, like not at all. So there is
no way to get kdelibs to build against lzma-dev without rewriting the
whole KDE compression filter for it.

So, either we transit to xz (which is not too much of a good idea due to the 
beta state of it, probably) or KDE does not have lzma support until xz replaces 
lzma.
I also need to mention that xz is not a fork, but a super enhanced version of 
lzma which was original lzma-utils 5
