That's not a thing that is supposed to happen, and it is not a
thing that I have ever observed happen. 

What did your
apt-get update tell you about what it was going to do?

Are you sure a person didn't put testing in your sources.list?

Thanks for the reply.

You'r right. The problem was in my sources.

Two weeks ago i tried sth and forgot to revert back
the correct ones..

Now i wonder what damage i've done.

My system booted ok . It seems like debian 9.  No observable changes to 
login screen or KDE.

Although kde info reports: Plasma 5.8.6 and
uname reports Linux 4.9.0-7

Sounds like you have a partially installed Debian Buster. This is what can happen when you change your sources, but you don't do a full-upgrade. Generally it probably isn't good to run this way.

Now is a good time to upgrade to Buster at least! Buster is expected to release next week, and for the most part is ready for use, unless you have certain hardware that you want to keep on Stretch.

First, I would back up your data.

Next, I would change your sources to point to buster (not testing), and:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt full-upgrade

and fully upgrade your system to Buster.

~# apt dist-upgrade to finish the task
Buster is quite stable, using it on most of our machines, no glitches.

Are the release / upgrade notes (whatever they're called) available for 
Buster?  I would guess the OP should read those for other possible actions 
which may be required.
