apt-get Problem



Hello,

i've got a Problem with 'apt-get install'

abramelin:/home/joerg/# apt-get install
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kdelibs3: Depends: xbase-clients but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

but...

abramelin:/home/joerg# apt-get -f install

The following extra packages will be installed:
  xbase-clients
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  xbase-clients
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2  not upgraded.

Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

Unpacking xbase-clients (from .../xbase-clients_4.1.0-16_i386.deb) ...
ERROR: /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp exists and is not a symbolic link. This package

Aborting installation of xbase-clients package.
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xbase-clients_4.1.0-16_i386.deb (--unpack):
 subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/xbase-clients_4.1.0-16_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

So i just need a way to telle apt-get that it should stop trying to
install xbase_client.
