No idea why those won't install automatically -- maybe
they are kept in a 'hold' state for some reason.
You could run `aptitude install kde kdm`, it might try
harder to get kde installed.
Also this can be done using the gui of `aptitude`; it
will show problems it found with your requested
installation of packages
Alternatively, you might add all the packages that
"are not going to be installed" to the apt-get line,
like
`apt-get install kde kdm kde-core kde-amusements
kdeaddons kde-pim` - that way you'll probably get
around the problem too
