Sarge "dist-upgrade" crashes during KDE



Hello, all.

I hope that you can help me.

While upgrading My Sarge machine this morning, I have got problems with a 
conflict during the process.

apt-get complains that:

/usr/lib/kde3/gsthumbnail.la already exists in kdebase-kio-plugins when trying 
to unpack kdegraphics-kfile-plugins

As usual it recommended issuing "apt-get install -f" to resolve the issue.

However this complained about the following packages:

BEGIN:

END

I've tried apt-get remove on the offedning package and removing the named 
file, but I keep getting the same problem.

Has anybody any ideas how I might resolve this, please?

I've even tried "apt-get remove kdesktop" but that has the same complaints.

If there is some very simple fix (even if it is just removing all of KDE to 
re-install - please tell me how.

Thanks in advance.
