After purging the files that cause conflicts you need to run 

apt-get -f install

that will install the newer versions from ktown, though with the missing 
dependencies for those packages, you need to have the -f passed there too to 
pull the missing packages out of the debian mirrors for installation.

When that is done, run

apt-get dist-upgrade

again to continue with your upgrade.
