This creates file 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-backports-wheezy.list
with content like this:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu wheezy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu wheezy main

Since there is no wheezy directory on kubuntu-ppa launchpad site, apt-get 
update will fail.

If you care, you must use correct sources.lists entries:
(for Ubuntu 12.04:)
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main 

OR (for Ubuntu 11.10:)
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu oneiric main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu oneiric main 

Please note that these packages were made with Ubuntu in mind and perhaps no 
one has ever tested them on Debian. It is unlikely they will break your 
system, but most certainly they may break your KDE installation. Pay special 
attention to any warning messages you may encounter while installing these 
packages.

Oh, and get rid of your current KDE installation before you proceed. Almost 
certainly these packages are in conflict with each other, even if no one has 
marked them so.
