kde is a metapackage, consisting only of dependencies telling apt which 
packages are needed additionally to install kde. There are dozens of packages 
affected, You should use deselect to have a chance to get them - my bet is, 
You won't. There are packages affected by this upgrade, that have absolutely 
nothing like "kde" in their name, some not even the "k" itself. Simply put 
the path to kde 3.2 in Your sources list and let apt handle the rest (try 
dist-upgrade to be on the save side).
