BTW could this have anything to do with installing to SID from scratch (netinst)? Might it be safer to install stable and get everything up and running and then upgrade to SID? Just a thought. Just as confusing is that after install (but before I even start X for the first time) I get the option to install a bunch of updates. The default is to keep current settings or to install the maintainers version. What's the best way to go?
Final question: The netinst doesn't come with Dutch language support. On the KDE site I can't find a Dutch language pack for Debian. Any clues on how to get this done? (redhad package didn't install)

With this being a fresh install and upgrade you want all the maintainers versions of the config files it is going to install there most likely are going to major changes in the structure of the file. If you had been using the system for a while and made changes to the files you would want to enter d at the asking screen to see the differences in the files being changed and if looks like there are a lot of changes so that the structure of the file is being changed instead of just overwritng your changes then you take the maintainers version and edit the file later for your preferences otherwise keep your edited version.
To get the language package for KDE you will have to install the kde-i18n-?? package for the language code that you want and for the system itself you would want the
locales,
localeconf and
localepurge programs with the localepurge being a program that allows you to select the locales that you want to remain on the system and to be generated each time you upgrade the packages this can take quite a while if you leave all them installed.
For the dcop error dpkg says that it is installed in the kdelibs-bin package so what do you have installed for KDE?
Code:
HappyTux:/home/stephen# dpkg -S dcopserver
kdelibs-bin: /usr/lib/dcopserver.so
kdelibs-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/dcopserver.1.gz
kdelibs-bin: /usr/bin/dcopserver_shutdown
kdelibs-bin: /usr/bin/dcopserver
kdelibs-bin: /usr/share/man/man1/dcopserver_shutdown.1.gz
kdelibs-bin: /usr/lib/dcopserver.la

Your list of packages should look similar if not install the packages you need. You will most likely run into the libsensors-1-debian1 bug you should get the file from this
page and have it available to install with dpkg when it happens so you can continue the install of KDE.
