Sorry, forgot to paste sources.list but basically woody:

# See sources.list(5) for more information, especialy
# Remember that you can only use http, ftp or file URIs
# CDROMs are managed through the apt-cdrom tool.
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian woody main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US woody/non-US main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free

#
# KDE

deb http://kde.rap.ucar.edu stable main crypto optional qt1apps
deb http://ftp.sourceForge.net/pub/mirrors/kde/stable/latest/distribution/deb stable main

in /var/lib/dpkg/available.
