Hmm. I was about to file a bug report, but I just downloaded the latest
potato package from kde.tdyc.com and this bug isn't present, so there
isn't really any point. I think you could probably have upgraded to the
latest version and then removed the package; failing that, the fix to
/var/lib/dpkg/info/kdebase.postrm above works in case anybody else runs
into the same problem.

Cheers,
