I've been away interstate for several days; returned home, on starting the system (11.0, 32-bit, KDE4.1) that there were some ~90 upgrades to be installed. OK, let's get them installed, I thought.

Are you using the KDE:Factory repository?


Yes - and been using it for a long time.

Then, I'm sorry to say, you are not using 11.0 and, IMHO, the fault is entirely yours, because you have corrupted a stable distro version with repos from another distro version; worse, from the very unstable factory.

Use either 11.0 or factory, not a mix. If you add repos to 11.0, add repos prepared for 11.0, not for factory.
