So where's the choice for kde3? Not there afaict. Neither does a package

The big problem is: Wheezy is where debian
defaults to kde4 and there
is no choice.
I do not understand this. There are at least two times during a
Wheezy
install where one can choose:
1. What desktop environment to install, XFCE, LXDE,KDE, From the first boot menu choose 'advanced
options>alternate desktop
environments>
2. boot menu> Expert install , you walk through all the choices, more
time consuming.
3. Or if you happen to hit the 'Install' or ' Graphical Install' option
from the boot menu you can always unselect the 'desktop environment'
during the 'Tasksel' phase.
I have been using TDE 3.5.14, nightly builds, on Wheezy works well here.
I always do a base/standard Wheezy net install, add Trinity sources,
install TDE.
So I'm asking for baby steps for that process. I don't want to read
something into that brief description and mess up a critical work
system. I've had systems go bad due to package version messups before
and I don't want to get it wrong. Many thanks to all for their help.
