I can't get kde. There seems to be a problem with the package

I had a bit of fun trying to track down the problem but couldn't
figure it out. Below is the output.
Q: is there a KDE lite that I can install rather than the huge KDE
metapackage?

this thread, which happened about an hour or so ago, might help you:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2005/12/msg01881.html
Perhaps I should have mentioned that I read that thread already and
fortunately my disks are not full, I ran apt-get clean and apt-get
update too. Makes no difference.
Whoops, I see you've moved on from out-of-disk space errors on that
thread. I guess I'm hit by the same bug.
If I could install a cut-down version of KDE without the add-ons, that
would do me fine, just enough to run a browser. Is there a way of
installing that?
