apt-get problem



I am setting up a new box and I had woody and KDE installed from a CD I got several months ago. I was installing some more stuff and somehow ended up with the error output below. A step that occurred before this was to start an upgrade from both woody and sid without a preferences file. I aborted this in the middle of the download. I have tried many things to get back to normal and there are probably more things I need to know about APT to get out of this.

dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs3-bin_4%3a2.2.2-13_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/dcop', which is also in package kdelibs3
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:

/var/cache/apt/archives/kdelibs3_4%3a2.2.2-13_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

TIA for any ideas.
