| You could always point your system to unstable instead of testing and
| upgrade:
|
| from /etc/apt/sources.list, you should have something like:
|
| deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main
|
| change to:
|
| deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
|
| Then update:
| apt-get update;apt-get install kde
|
| Don't know what else you may have to pull in from unstable to fulfill
| kde's dependencies though...
|
I wouldn't do it this way, but you could go to
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages and scroll down to "Search
package directories". Enter in unstable distribution and and the
package name that you are looking for. The web site will tell you what
packages are needed along with the package that you are looking for.
Down load the required deb files and do
dpkg -i debfile.deb debfile.deb
