The various build issues are not coming any closer to being resolved. Or at least don't look that way to me. The incompetent buildd admins are still around and still have not retried builds they should never have failed in the first place (all the g++ related ones). I posted a new update for KDE 3.1.5 to debian-qt-kde today. Also Martin's packaging of qt-x11-free is causing numerous problems with getting things built. I may NMU/hijack qt-x11-free myself if he doesn't fix the packaging issues soon. :( > I notice that the lm-sensors dependency is i386-specific, so presumably > it's just an optional feature.

Would you consider building > ksysguardd without lm-sensors support for now? The lm-sensors problem with kdebase is minor compared to all the other problems KDE has currently, but yes once the other problems are resolved if lm-sensors is still an issue I will upload a version of kdebase with no dependency on lm-sensors.
