[Bug 1451728] Re: [master] kde-config-telepathy-accounts package install error

[N H]

I have experienced this problem as well, while adding KDE to the desktop
environments on my copy of Ubuntu. As I like XFCE for most things, but
decided to see how recent versions of KDE look. During installation, the
KDE accounts config package kept trying to overwrite files provides by
other packages. Apt-get install -f did not do it's job, and threw the
same errors. I eventually just grabbed the .deb files using pkgs.org and
installed them with dpkg --force-all. This resulted in all sorts of file
conflicts, which as I used the --force-all option, it overrided and
installed anyway. KDE seems to be working normally. If I need to, I will
reinstalled the package that got overwritten, once again with the
--force-all option to make sure it does it's job. However is packaging
those two packages, need to decided who provides what, or move the
configs off to a third package that they both could depend on instead of
conflicting.
