It sounds to me like this was not a regular upgrade, or your running/mixing

You are right, I am running debian/testing. The packet was installed with a
big KDE update.

You also seem to be wanting to complain, instead of asking for support or
looking for discussion.

I hoped at least the first part of the mail would be helpful to someone having
the same problem. I found a few posts with the same error during the last, but
no answer so far.

IMO complaints should go to bugs.debian.org,
not necessarily here.

Noted.
