kdelibs-apidocs is only in one format (HTML). However, we may want to add a 
second format (QCH, which is basically an archive of HTML files) soon 
because that way we could get Qt Assistant, and with minimal code changes 
also KDevelop, to display that documentation. (It would be a separate 
subpackage.) Though shipping only the QCH might also be worth considering.
