Hi,
maybe try with aptitude, it's often more efficient in this kind of
situation. Starting with kde4-minimal may also be a good idea (less
packages thrown in at the same time). I had kde4 installed on Lenny not
long before it get released as stable (was still testing), it should
still be possible to do so now.
