Well, there used to be some available with the following sources.list line:
deb http://kde.tdyc.com/ potato kde contrib
For reasons I won't get into now, KDE wasn't included in the distribution
until recently, and one of the KDE developers (who is also a Debian
developer/maintainer) maintained unofficial Debian packages for KDE at the
above location. (While KDE2 was in beta, you could get .debs for it by
using "kde2" in the above line.) Recently, though, I've gotten "Failure to
download" messages on the KDE repositories. I don't know if that's due to
KDE2 being released (and the KDE1 .debs going away, i haven't checked the
above to see if there are *any* .deb repositories left there), or due to
the fact that that repository is superfluous since KDE2 is in woody, or
both, or neither. If it helps, though, I have the following KDE1 packages
still in apt's cache:
$ ls /var/cache/apt/archives/kd*
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdegames_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs2g-dev_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs2g_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdenetwork-dev_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdenetwork_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdesupport0g-dev_4%3a1.1.2-20000820-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdesupport0g_4%3a1.1.2-20000820-1.0_i386.deb
/var/cache/apt/archives/kdm_4%3a1.1.2-20000425-1.0_i386.deb
If you'd like them, I can put them up on my site for you to download
(though you will have to download them and run "dpkg -i" on the files).
Let me know and I'd be happy to do that.
