Default kde 4.0.80 upgrade issue?

I was running 4.0.2. I started running the upgrade to 4.0.80 when I ran into
an issue with kdebase-runtime-data-common. The error message:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase-runtime-data-common_4%3a4.0.80-2_all.deb:
trying to overwrite
`/usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-development-translation.directory', which
is also in package kdebase-workspace-data

From the comments in the change log for that package I see: "Install
desktop-directory files to kdebase-runtime-data-common (37 files)."

Somehow I suspect that caused the issue I had since the error reports an
attempt to overwrite some files in a 'desktop-directories' folder.

This has left the kdebase-runtime-data-common package broken. I am wondering
what my best option is?

Best Regards, Allen

I took the brute force approach and used dpkg --force-overwrite. It worked.
