I’ve had this problem, too, when upgrading to 4.2.3. I suggest not using dpkg --force-anything though, most of time it’ll end up breaking something the next time you upgrade. A less intrusive solution is
dpkg-divert --package kdebase-runtime --divert /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu.not-kdebase-runtime --rename /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu which causes all packages except kdebase-runtime to install kdesu under another name thus avoiding conflicts. -- package kdebase-runtime 4:4.2.1-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: conflicts with kdesudo (it tries to owerwrite file /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345776 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
