It should, but it may not do it cleanly and you'll run into conflicts maybe. I 
cannot guarantee this because you may have apps installed that aren't 
available as KDE 3.1 apps from my packages although I have a good portion of 
KDE apps already in the repository that are from 3rd parties so if there's no 
replacement available you'll get those deleted.

Also, I should remind that apt-get says it's not going to upgrade 21 packages. 
Be sure, I *didn't* test upgrading from 2.2.2 to 3.1 yet, thats also what the 
README says. If you don't know what you're doing, remove KDE 2.2.2 first and 
*then* install 3.1.

Hence apt removing the previous version of KDE for

You'll get a 3.1 for it, so what do you want more ? :-)
