Simply install KDE with Synaptic, apt-get or what ever you like and then simply remove GNOME. "Simply" removing GNOME won't cause inconsistencies, but maybe you have to remove a lot of packages manually, since removing meta-packages won't remove network-manager, evolution, gcalctool etc., so you better don't install GNOME in the first place. I agree that we shouldn't install GNOME to a Linux anymore. Upstream forces hard dependencies to PA and systemd, big intransparent buggy blobs. I bet Debian soon or later will switch to systemd too. Current Evolution 3.6 can't share Emails with e.g. Evolution 3.2.3, GNOME nowadays is crap. A long time ago I switched to Xfce4, unfortunately I can't use it's maildir with other maildir compatible MUAs.
