I've got some more changes to account for... Basically, just 
edit /etc/apt/sources.list and replace at-stable with at-testing, then 
apt-get update. From there, you can: 

1) Install medley-package-config to get the full-blown sources.list. However, 
it'll get created as /etc/apt/sources.list.rpmnew, so you have to:
#cd /etc/apt
# mv sources.list.rpmnew sources.list
(answer y)
# apt-get update

Then you can install the updated kde stuff. 

or:

2) Ignore all the kde-redhat stuff after enabling at-testing and proceed 
through the doc.
