I tried it yesterday with the 3.1/Debian_7.0 and the 3.1/Updates/Debian_7.0 
repo and installation went well. 

The only small problem for me was the dependency of postfix, because debian 
installes exim and so I have to 

apt-get install --no-recommends kolab postfix

Maybe you get dependency-problems if you let install recommende stuff also. the 
libcalendaring0 could be a result of this.

We've had the problem with libcalendaring0 for upgrading 3.0 to 3.1 yesterday 
on the list "Update Kolab 3.0 auf 3.1"
