Hello,

Actually, I copied/pasted the exact text from the screen...and that was
the 
ONLY information provided.  I have tried using --force as well.  All I
know,
and I am at this point, blaming it on the kdebase problem, is that I
cannot
run ANY kde app.  In every case, after this failed kdebase install, I
get
this message (in this example, from trying to run konsole):

konsole: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.3:
undefined symbol: getButtonShift__14QPlatinumStyleRiT1

I get this same message trying to run konquerer, kedit, kpackage...

Although libkdecore is supplied by kdelibs, which I have been assuming
is
OK, though I may be wrong there too.  Kdebase alone, or several packages
together, are conspiring to make kde totally useless and dead on my
system.

kde-1.1.2 ran perfectly on this same system.
