OK, due to the possibility to run a Debian version of Ktorrent in Ubuntu, I gave myself a try. So far everything is fine.

I've found my answer here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1013086

"If you haven't had any luck upgrading to 3.1.5, you might want to take an extreme route and try using the Debian Sid repository (http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/ktorrent/download). I wouldn't recommend leaving that repo active or using it to upgrade anything else, but it does have the latest version of Ktorrent."

So I did, and got it from here: http://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/ktorrent/download

The other option "could be" download Ktorrent 3.1.5 and KDE4 upgrades from Jaunty, which could break whole system (and is unnecessary).

Things like that are bad propaganda against the distro, because Ktorrent *is* the default bittorrent client in Kubuntu.
