            Here's a relevant snippet from /etc/apt/sources.list...

    # The KDE archive.
    #deb ftp://kde.tdyc.com potato main crypto optional qt1apps
    #deb http://kde.tdyc.com potato main crypto optional qt1apps
    deb http://kde.rap.ucar.edu potato main crypto optional qt1apps

            The lines with hashes in front of them are comments, of course.
    I usually type "apt-get update" to get an updated list. If update process
    shows that the current archive is unavailable, I'll try another one. By
    uncommenting one archive and commenting the others, I can usually find an
    available one.

            I've had the best luck with the kde.rap.ucar.edu site so far.
