And the KDE developers are totally and utterly right to say so, it's the distributors and pakagers job to make packages. It's in fact their main task, so one should come to expect they manged to do that in a satisfactory manner.
The most revealing point here is, if you take the pristine released source packages from KDE and compile them, you get a better result than some distribution packages. In the source packages the KDE developers in a very precise way, have alredy described how the code should be built and deployed. That some packagers deviate from that and generate a sub-par product, should really have the packagers step back and re-evaluete their process as it's clearly shown to be flawed.
