There are several differences between the RPM and the DEB packages (they are in hamm, I believe). This is because of the fact that KDE (==.tar.gz and .rpm) isn't "Debian-compliant". I installed RPM's, not using alien or something, but using rpm2cpio, and extracting the cpio archive to /usr/local/kde. /opt/kde is a symlink to /usr/local/kde. Everything is working fine over here.
