Should be the same errors if you use 'apt-get'.

If the only error message is on .kde/config, you can rename the .kde to 
.kde_old and restart. You will have a fresh kde desktop and configure it 
the way you want it; copy selected old data (like kmail) from .kde_old 
to the new .kde; however, best you update/upgrade before doing this.

However, if there is more than just that, to try to resolve errors by

sudo apt-get -f install
sudo dpkg --configure -a

Then, update/upgrade to 'round up'.
