I'm pretty sure the packages would have to me modified. To get around it, you'll have to manually install the packages uses dpkg --force-depends. Unfortunately, anytime you upgrade packages, dselect will want to remove those packages because they have unmet dependencies (atleast apt will). This is something that I think we should get on the kde people to fix. It's a minor change.
