Are you logged out of KDE while trying to do so?
I logged into a console and updated. I also deleted
my .DCOP files too, as well as all files in /tmp.
Worked for me, so far at least.

Hmm, wish I'd followed this thread before installing - I now have a KDE3
with no icons (either desktop or in apps).  Something is stopping it
accessing qt3 by the look of it, and it's whinging about lybcrypto and
libssl not being installed (which they are).  Everything works fine,
just iconless.

I've got a worse one - libarts won't install because it can't overwrite
/usr/lib/mcop/kmedia2somethingorother, and I can't even delete that file
as root.
