Hi Murray,
The outdated 3.5.10 version of kdelibs in the Ubuntu archives (including kdelibs-data) is not compatible with the new KDE3/Trinity version of kdelibs (which includes kdelibs-data-kde3). Please remove kdelibs-data, and note which programs will be removed with it. Then try reinstalling those programs, but with a -kde3 suffix appended. For example, kolourpaint becomes kolourpaint-kde3.
Hope this helps!
Tim

Hello
I have the same problem(s) (the sudo problem and now this library problem, in jaunty everything was smooth, but no complain, since I very much appreciate you efforts) however it seems that I can't solve the lib problem
for exmaple>
sudo apt-get install kdelibs4c2a-kde3 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done kdelibs4c2a-kde3 is already the newest version. You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libskim0: Depends: kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.9) but it is not going to be installed skim: Depends: kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.9) but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
so how to I interpret this message?

I feel uneasy about these messages

Hi Murray,
As skim has not been ported to KDE3 yet, it must be removed from your system. You can do that with the following command: sudo dpkg --purge skim libskim0
Let me know if you run into any difficulties with this.
