You just hit the wrong moment when I was regenerating the packages file at the
same time when the ktown machine's cron was generating the source tarball
snapshots from KDE CVS which sets it under heavy load.

Ben has been re-working the kdesdk package with those things. Expect it to
work with the 3.1.1 release :-)

There need to be conflicts added because kdevelop in 2.1.5 ships the
translations itself because they're not in the i18n packages anymore. For now
uninstall the KDE 2.2.2 (or 3.0.x) i18n packages, then install kdevelop and
the 3.1 i18n packages

I think there's an upgrade script included in debian. Just don't know how
reliable that works with kde 3.

my libdirectfb is a backport from unstable. Maybe you need to notify the
maintainer.
