Broken Konq-plugins package.

#1 Post by Guest »

Okay, so a little while ago, I was going through the K Menu and apt-get removing everything that wasn't useful and I didn't use, especially since Knoppix comes with a VERY large selection of software Smile. Btw, I'm using Debian-style Knoppix HD installation. Anyway, I uninstalled akregator, which needed konq-plugins, which was uninstalled too (whoops!). Thus, konq-plugins is uninstalled and I can't browse for software and say add something to the K Menu. When I try apt-get install konq-plugins, it gives me this:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
konq-plugins
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.

Unpacking konq-plugins (from .../konq-plugins_4%3a3.3.2-4_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/konq-plugins_4%3a3.3.2-4_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/share/mimelnk/application/x-webarchive.desktop', which is also in package kdelibs-data
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/konq-plugins_4%3a3.3.2-4_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Anyone know what's up? Do I need to reinstall KDE? And if I do, how do I do that?[/b]

In my computer, there is no '/usr/share/mimelnk/application/x-webarchive.desktop' file in kdelibs-data. Maybe your system is a bit outdated, and you want to install a package which assumes newer packages around it? You may try to dist-upgrade your system, and install konq-plugins after that.
