as you see there is a problem overwriting /usr/lib/libmng.la.

if you're shure you don't break anything you might try

dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libmng_0.9.3-0.potato.3_powerpc.deb

or, if you want to be on the save side, get the sources for ksysctrl,
ktimemon, libqt2.2 and compile them or get newer versions compiled agains
libmng 1.0.3-1

yours martin
