We used packagekit/kpackagekit in Kubuntu for several cycles. It's really not well oriented towards Debian style packaging (Debian released Squeeze with no KDE GUI package manager rather than use a packagekit based solution). We've recently switched to a Debian native solution that I think will work better for Kubuntu. RPM and Debian packages are very different in a lot of ways and I'm skeptical that something written for RPM is going to be suitable.
