AFAIK, debian does not distribute KDE because of license issues. There's a
list of unofficial apt-sources at
http://www.internatif.org/bortzmeyer/debian/apt-sources/
and there's a few for kde:
deb http://kde.tdyc.com/ slink kde kde2 contrib rkrusty
deb http://kde.tdyc.com/ potato kde kde2 contrib rkrusty
pick one of these (depending on whether you're running slink or potato) and
stick it in the apt sources file (/etc/apt/sources.list i think (I'm not at
a debian box at the moment, if that's not it, it'll probably be in the apt
or apt-get manpage).
After that, you should be able to apt-get kde packages. There's probably a
list somewhere at http://kde.tdyc.com/. There's probably something like
kdebase or kdecore to start with.
Disclaimer: I haven't tried it, but this seems to be the canonical answer
on the debian mailing lists.
