Hi Antony,
This has been reported at
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-25294.html
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
Cheers,
Sean
