    Than you configured... Your help is at:
    http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/home.html#contents

    See:
    SuSE/9.1-i386/base $ zgrep kdebase3\; contlist.bz2 | grep i586
    kdebase3;3.2.1-63;i586;base
    kdebase3;3.2.1-68.15;i586;update
    kdebase3;3.2.1-68.23;i586;update
    kdebase3;3.2.2-8;i586;kde3-stable
    kdebase3;3.2.3-5;i586;kde3-stable

    It seems you have kdebase3 (3.2.3) from apt component kde3-stable. While at
    the moment you have available via the source.list file 3.2.1-68.15 from apt
    component update.
    Same is valid for arts:
    SuSE/9.1-i386/base $ zgrep arts\; contlist.bz2 | grep i586
    arts;1.2.1-31;i586;base
    arts;1.2.1-35.4;i586;update
    arts;1.2.2-2;i586;kde3-stable
    arts;1.2.3-3;i586;kde3-stable

    Now if you want to install a newer kde version (e.g 3.3) you need to add the
    apt component 'kde' to your /etc/apt/sources.list file.

    SuSE/9.1-i386/base $ zgrep kdebase3-devel\; contlist.bz2 | grep i586
    .....
    kdebase3-devel;3.3.0-1;i586;suse-people
    kdebase3-devel;3.3.0-8;i586;kde
    kdebase3-devel;3.3.0-8;i586;kde3-stable

    The apt component is actually the kde supplementary directory from suse.
    After adding the component, perform an apt update and apt install digicam and
    see what gets reported.

    You can check with 'apt showpkg kdebase3 | head -10' which version are
    available (do this e.g. after and before 'apt update').
