[Bug 345776] Re: 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)

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.
