KDE update

[Geny R <bigrab@zahav.net.il>]

I have recently started using Debian woody.
I would appreciate some help in resolving a problem I have on trying to
upgrade KDE3.0.5a to KDE3.1.
 Using apt-get upgrade  everything goes ok until unpacking when it
complains, for example,
    dpkg-deb : subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe).
Errors were encountered while processing :
/var/cache/apt/archives/libarts1_1.1.0-0woody4_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kcontrol_4%3a3.1.0-0woody2_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase-bin_4%3a3.1.0-0woody2_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase-kio-plugins_4%3a3.1.0-0woody2_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/konsole_4%3a3.1.0-0woody2_i386.deb

    Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg  returned an error  code (1).
Have been reading through dpkg.status but can find nothing to guide me
in finding out what went wrong. Is there anyway I can "back out" of this?
Thanks for any advice forwarded.
