Ok, so this doesn't seem to be that simple really.

First of all, mostly for my own referencing in the future let me describe what I did exactly.

To upgrade kde-workspace:

1) Downloaded all of the .deb files from the link above with the following command:
wget -r -A.deb --no-directories https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace/4:4.9.0-0ubuntu4/+build/3762859

2) Ran the following script to install only the packages that are already installed on my system:
pl= ; for a in *.deb ; do p=$(dpkg-deb --info $a | sed -n 's/Package: \(\S*\)/\1/p') ; i=$(dpkg -s $p 2>/dev/null |grep Status) ; pl="$pl $a" ; done ; sudo dpkg -i $pl

This resulted in some errors. The full output is here (http://paste.ubuntu.com/1285546/) but in short the errors were some missing dependencies that I could get around by installing the packages needed (a bit weird though why the dependency changed but that's a different conversation).

But after installing the needed packages, I'm getting a version conflict for kde-workspace-data. It turns out that there is no 4.9.0 package for that for some reason and kde-workspace-bin cannot be installed because of that. Can anyone tell me where I could get my hands on kde-workspace-data_4.9.0-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb?
