It's not. :) The version of koffice in testing is old enough that testing has killustrator, not kontour. Sid has kontour, not killustrator. Btw, you should be able to install kontour without the rest of the koffice suite. One thing that might lead to conflicts is if you're using KDE 2.2.1 from sid with KOffice 1.1-beta2 from testing. If that's the case, try upgrading koffice to the sid version as well. Ben.
