That's exactly the right place - the KDE source from kde.org doesn't have the 
first two lines (the copy constructor and operator). I'll have to see if I 
can fix the handwritten code that's calling the copy constructor. In the 
meantime, you should be able to do the following edits:

In PyKDE-snapshot20060122/sip/kdecore/kdecore-kde350.diff:
   comment out (//) or delete the line containing %Include ktimezones.sip

PyKDE-snapshot20060122/sip/kdeui/kdeui-kde350.diff
   comment out (//) or delete the line containing %Include ktimezonewidget.sip

That will remove the KTimezone-related stuff from your PyKDE completely, which 
probably won't be too inconvenient. It's new in KDE 3.5.0 and nothing else 
depends on it.

Does anybody on the list know why Debian has this difference? Does it extend 
to other Debian-based distributions?
