In my opinion the correct way of creating it would be to create a patch file 
that fixes the kolab build system to create it. (And then submit that 
upstream).

Because if someone wanted to build outside of the packaging they'd 
probably like the kolab package to be importable.

Also for libkolab / libkolabxml to actually be released in debian they 
probably will need symbols files.

I made some progress on a symbols file for libkolabxml.
