it seems that the hfsplus-tools package arbitrary renames its executables. This prevents kde-partitionmanager to fully support HFS+.
I've opened a bug [1] for this, but I received no answer.

Anyone knows why those executables are renamed?
Don't know, but I guess that's done to make "mkfs -t hfsplus" and
"fsck -t hfsplus" work. See the mkfs and fsck man pages for more info.
I'm pretty sure a symlink mkfs.hfsplus -> newfs_hfs and fsck.hfsplus
-> fsck_hfs would satisfy all requirements. This is what ntfsprogs
does.

Thanks, I also think using symlinks instead of renaming executables would be better.
I will add a note to the bug report to see if this is possible.
