Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: klog

just installed 9.04 and started adding Ham Radio programs - klog was one
tried apt-get update and got error for kdelib5-data-??   apt-get -f install - did not help
error was about subdirectory 'common' trying to be overwritten and was created? by klog.

This is the path: (common was symbolic link to klog in same directory)
if I cd common - I did not move anywhere! So I cd klog and there was
another symbolic link to preveous directory and itself!

/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/common --> klog
/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/klog/common --> ../common (seems like there was a recursive link here!)

Solution: I rm both links to ;common', removed klog, and re-ran install
program to install kdelib5-data which created a directory called
'common' in /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/common (not a symbolic link).
