As much as I want to help, I am somewhat under pressure work wise and wouldn't want to jeopardise my working system (it's taken a while to get it almost right). I do have a kde system on this machine also running on sid (my previous production system). When I have some time, I'll be happy to have a go - I've only compiled the odd small package, never a whole suite with dependencies et al (that's why I rely on aptitude). Good news is, I've recovered my desktop ;) but still haven't worked out why it disappeared.
