The libkcal.la file exists in (at least) two packages, and dpkg don't
like that so it skips over the problem. You can force the issue
with:
dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache...libkcal2...deb
IF you are confident that doing so will not mess anything up.

ditto for this also
Seeing how they are both KDE packages from the same release, I would
go ahead and --force-overwrite, then file a bug report.
