So I do:
[rabbit]root%apt-get install kde Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done kde is already the newest version. You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: kdeaddons: Depends: kontact-plugins (>= 4:3.2.3-2) but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
So then I do:
[rabbit]root%apt-get -f install Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following extra packages will be installed: kontact-plugins Suggested packages: kdeaddons-doc-html The following NEW packages will be installed: kontact-plugins 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 721 not upgraded. 174 not fully installed or removed. Need to get 0B/52.4kB of archives. After unpacking 188kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] (Reading database ... 145759 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking kontact-plugins (from .../kontact-plugins_4%3a3.2.3-2_i386.deb) ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/kontact-plugins_4%3a3.2.3-2_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/kde3/kcm_kontactknt.so', which is also in package kontact dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/kontact-plugins_4%3a3.2.3-2_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [rabbit]root%
Are you sure you want to be running unstable? Something like this is typically the result of using unstable and/or mixing with other package sources
Anyway; I guess you got to get rid of the conflict; so..
dpkg --force-overwrite -i \ /var/cache/apt/archives/kontact-plugins_4%3a3.2.3-2_i386.deb
Maybe you want to use `script` to make a log file of everything that happens; apt-get will continue it's work when it finds that conflict is gone (probably) or use apt-get -f install again;
HTH,
Joris
