I have similar problems.
I'm running 'testing' and when I tried to upgrade to KDE 3.1.2,
virtually everything KDE-related was actually removed(!).
I managed to reinstall KDE 2.x successfully, but was experiencing
problems with it (font settings not being saved permanently, etc).
Now when I try to install KDE 3.1.2, using..
deb http://download.kde.org/stable/latest/Debian/ stable main
..I get problems with the following:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
kdelibs4: Depends: libarts1 (>= 1.1.2) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libvorbis0 (>= 1.0rc3-1) but it is not installable
Depends: kdelibs-bin (= 4:3.1.2-0woody1)
I'm fairly sure I do have the correct version of libarts1 installed
(how do I check this?), but I can't seem to install libvorbis0:
Package libvorbis0 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
However the following packages replace it:
libvorbisfile3 libvorbisenc2 libvorbis0a
E: Package libvorbis0 has no installation candidate
(It seems that installing libarts1 installs libvorbis0a as well..?)
Am I trying to install KDE files in the right order?
What packages should I be asking apt-get install to install?
Does it make any difference the order in which my KDE deb line, and my
'testing' deb line appear in /etc/apt/sources.list?

Yes, I've noticed dependency problems with these as well..
Too many things seem to depend or conflict with each other, like a tiger
chasing its tail(!). I'm now thoroughly confused.. :-(
Can anybody offer me any advice on how I can get KDE3 (any version) back
working on my system again?
Many thanks for any advice,
David.
