There are a lot of transitions going on in Debian right now due to
changes in the C++ ABI used by the GCC compilers (among others). So if
one key library was recompiled with the new "c2" ABI after your Knoppix
CD was mastered, anything depending on that library will also need to be
upgraded. I see kdelibs4c2 in the list of packages, and that alone
could cause the behaviour you're seeing---that's the basic library
package for all KDE apps.

Things will probably be fine. (With the obvious exception of packages
that get removed because they don't have "c2" equivalents yet---wait a
few days/weeks and they'll get recompiled for "c2", too.) I've gone
through several large updates to Debian without any noteworthy problems.
