When I upgraded from stable to Sarge about 3-4 months ago, it removed my
whole KDE package, IIRC. Also, again, IIRC, there were several other
packages that were removed and not upgraded. I just assumed that
perhaps a major dist-upgrade from one release to another did that -
replaced packages that were basic, but just simply removed the optional
ones. But it didn't matter anyway, because I was using Blackbox and was
not even using KDE, except for occasional uses of kmail, knode, and
konsole, but I'd migrated to xterm, too. I haven't tried to reinstall
KDE yet.
As for the packages that want to "slip away".. how about putting them on
hold for awhile?
