Rebuid KDE from ABS - cannot find PKGBUILDs for some packages

Hi,
I want to rebuid some of the kde packages to include debugging symbols but I cannot find the source (PKGBUILD etc) under /var/abs/extra.
For example there's no kdebase-plasma under /var/abs/extra (I did sudo abs) and I'd like to rebuild it, where can I find PKGBUILD?
I'm sure I am missing something basic, could somebody enlighten me.

thanks

Re: Rebuid KDE from ABS - cannot find PKGBUILDs for some packages

to find out from which package is built(kdebase-plasma is made from a split build), just search for it on our site, click on it and then in the right you have a trunk link from svn. pkgbase is the package that you want to use from /var/abs/extra/.

in this case, is /var/abs/extra/kdebase

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
