At this point, I might refer to to the kde faq at 
http://www.davidpashley.com/debian-kde/faq.html

kdelibs3 is part of kde2, kde3 has a package called kdelibs4 (you can see this 
being installed in the above segment). What you imght also notice is that you 
now had 49 pacakged being _upgraded_ as well as those being 
removed/installed. all should have gone well if you had said yes.

I don't know what the issue with the size mismatch on the downloaded debs was, 
though.
