Personally I resolved this using :

dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs-data_4%
3a3.4.0-0ubuntu3.1_all.deb

KDE 3.4 has been working fine ever since.

But check the above link for discussion on the best approach.

This has also been reported as an upstream debian bug.  See
http://lists.debian.org/debian-qt-kde/2004/12/msg00201.html for details

Thanks, Sean. The dpkg -i --force-overwrite command worked fine, just 
like it did for you. Thanks for the info on the thread on the forum. 
Apologies to all for my message not being in the form of a proper 
reply-to . . . I get the digest version for ISP concerns, and it doesn't 
allow a simple "reply-to".
