There are two problems 

1) I have apt-proxy installed and therefore my /etc/apt/sources.list lines are 
different (I have to connect to apt-proxy) .  I've tried to replicate the 
resultant lines by manually merging my sources.list file and apt-proxy.conf 
files

2) I rebuilt all the kde debs myself and now install them from a local web 
server (behind a firewall - my isp only gives me 30MB of file space and this 
repository is over 100Mb so I can't even put them on the net for everyone 
else).

I think there may be a problem with the kde.org address the bit in the string 
that says "latest" is a symlink to a version directory and there may not be 
debs behind that version.  Take a look at ftp.kde.org yourself under ftp and 
see if you can find a Debian directory in another version.
