KDE installation broken?



I tried to install kde 3 on my sid system and found that it is broken in
sid and woody:

[defiant /]# apt-get install kde
Reading Pacage Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kde: Depends: kdemultimedia but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

[defiant /]# apt-get -t testing install kde
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kde: Depends: kdebase-audiolibs but it is not going to be installed or
                kdebase3-audiolibs but it is not installable
       Depends: kpackage but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

Whats the best way to go about installing kde without breaking whats
installed now?

Thanks,
