Hi,

got an issue with yesterday update :

var/cache/apt/archives/kdepim-runtime_4%3a4.13.1-0ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb 
trying to overwrite '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/facebookresource.png', which is also in package kaccount-providers 0.0+git20140429+r29.3~ubuntu14.04.1

With command line

Décompactage de kdepim-runtime (4:4.13.1-0ubuntu0.1) sur (4:4.13.0-0ubuntu1) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/kdepim-runtime_4%3a4.13.1-0ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb (--unpack):

dpkg-deb : erreur : le sous-processus coller a été tué par le signal (Relais brisé (pipe))

The system can’t install the Account Wizard update.

See you.

Hi foxxav,

the error is being worked on upstream, a temporary fix is to update like this:
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/kdepim-runtime_4%3a4.13.1-0ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Hope this works for you.

Just try to remove kaccount-providers.

sudo dpkg --remove kaccount-providers
and reinstall kde-accounts.

I have made it in this way. Runs well for me.

In Linux there is a concept of so called packagemanagers (known to the public maybe as software center or app store) to obtain software. This means installing a package called XYZ you need to go into a graphical packagemanagement tool like muon or synaptic and search for the package and mark it for installation and hit apply.
Or you can use the command line packagemanagement tool apt to do this like that:

sudo apt-get install kde-accounts
