Everything you have said makes sense when you track Debian development and are aware of the current status of unstable. Just now unstable is "enjoying" the C++ transition. During the transition, as explained by Adeodato in a message some weeks ago, KDE is *expected* to be "un-dist-upgradable" for some weeks. In that message Adeodato explicitly told to not dist-upgrade KDE. The facts are: a) you run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade (against the previous advice). Of course, you didn't checked the output of apt-get, so you didn't realized it was uninstalling lots of packages b) as a consecuence of a), you broke your KDE installation, found that the package kdm didn't have a binary (damn!, it had been deinstalled in a)) and reported it as a bug without checking if the package was installed c) you keep arguing and blaming others of your faults So the point is: NO. Reporting problems already known, announced and expected by the developers doesn't help at all.
