Hello,
There are three ways I know of:
1) build kde using konstruct: http://developer.kde.org/build/konstruct/
2) upgrade your system to testing or unstable
3) find some backports
1 will build a nice KDE for one user, which might be what you want. It
will not help if you need patches later.
2 is risky and will mean spending a lot of time keeping your system
running, but is the only real way to get bleeding edge stuff in debian.
3 is good if you find a good set of packages but can be a mess
otherwise.
If I were you, I could look for a good set of backports, and failing
that build it with konstuct.
Pete
