Apparently because I installed kdesvn I had to install kdesvn-kio-plugins but 
then I had to remove kdesdk-kio-plugins. As kdesdk-kio-plugins depends on 
subversion it was marked as automatically installed and was to be removed.
Have to remove the mark from "Synaptic=>Package=>Automatically installed".

reading thru "man subversion" I see that I could have used:

  aptitude unmarkauto subversion

Well - enough babbling from me ;-)
