Hello, This morning I tried to do my routine apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade. The dist-upgrade blew up on some kde packages.

However, /usr/lib/kde2/kio_https.la is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/kio_https.la which actually points back to /usr/lib/kde2/kio_https-nossl.la. I have tried moving /usr/lib/kde2/kio_https* out of the way, but that did not work. I have moved them back to where they are supposed to be. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks, Anthony
