I kept my Debian unstable at KDE 3.5.9/3.5.10 to keep my KDE 3.5.X apps, 
but others have installed Quanta 3.5.9 and dependencies under KDE 4.X 
and have been able to use Quanta 3.5.9 under KDE 4.X.

I usually use aptitude to experiment with packages and dependencies so 
that I can install what I want without having other stuff removed that I 
don't want removed.
