not a debian expert but in the RPM or tgz world it is necessary to install kde 
in the following order

arts
kdelibs
kdebase

etc...

what does/would this do:-

apt-get install arts
apt-get install kdelibs 
apt-get install kdebase

I have the impression that apt-get should follow dependencies automaticly? so 
i assume it isn.'t but if you install the packages in that order that may? 
help
