as manfred already stated, there is no need to download a source tarball or 
whatsoever, all you need to do is start the ubuntu package manager (synaptic),
then search for 'kontact' there and click 'install'.
synaptic will then do the rest for you, e.g. install all dependencies (mostly 
libraries) neede by kontact, automatically.

you may also want to have a look at the various ubuntu/kubuntu forums on the 
net.
