The issue can't be fixed in kscope itself as it needs some library provided by 
kate3 and not kate4, and no kde4 version of kscope has been released yet.

As a temporary solution, you can extract the libkateinterfaces.so.0.0.0 from a 
kate3 debian package and put it in /usr/local/lib as all its deps are provided 
by kdelibs4c2a.

If you use i386, you can do the following (as root) :
  cd /tmp
  wget ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/kdebase/kate_3.5.9.dfsg.1-5_i386.deb
  ar x kate_3.5.9.dfsg.1-5_i386.deb
  tar xzf data.tar.gz
  cp usr/lib/libkateinterfaces.so.0.0.0 /usr/local/lib
  ldconfig

Let me know if it doesn't have side effects on kscope's stability/features.
