Not really. They worked to make the dependencies directly from Qt. see
http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-devel_free_armel/freoffice/0.2-1

Still, they indeed provided
http://maemo.org/packages/view/pkg-kde-tools/ - which seems to be the
only kde* package currently in Extras-devel.

PS: fwiw precisely these days we are donating 10 N900s to the KDE
project for distribution to selected projects/developers.
