package kde-config-telepathy-accounts 4:15.12.3-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/accounts/services/google-im.service', which is also in package account-plugin-google 0.12+16.04.20160126-0ubuntu1

I currently have no desktop other than conjuring one up via ctrl alt F1 and running xinit as root. This is very unsat. At this time I am in a
GUI I conjured via startx running as user.
Numerous kernel programs are failin and reporting as bugs

This all started when I upgraded from KXStudio Ubuntu 14.04
to Kubuntu 16.04. Near the end of the irreversable process,
The installation crashed and reported I have an unstable system (like yuk!)
Since then I did a rescue load and then all the upgrading/re-installing
I could figure out. The GUI continues to report:
/scripts/init-premount/plymouth: line 38: /sbin/plymouthd: not found
etc. Numerous bugs are reported on this. I have tried many of the non-destructive solution,
none have worked.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I have resolved almost all of the problems noted above, however the method was tedious. I found a listing of all the packages in Kubuntu 16.04. I then used "sudo apt-get build-dep <pkg name goes here>" on every package from an X-term in the conjured GUI from xinit (above). Some packages were not present in the first place. Many had some unmet dependencies. I answered "y" to all install requests. After going down the list most problems were eliminated. I currently have some bugs in kwin_x11, however nothing that stops the show.
1. Desktop icons will operate by a left double click, but not a right click and selecting "open"I get error, malformed url.
2. The top of screen decorations of some windows are aff the screen and I have to use <alt> <right click> to get the decorations on screen.
3. kwin_x11 will not execute in debug mode. (Makes bug reporting impossible)
4. KXStudio installed and cadence does not initialize correctly. Re-installation did not fix it. I have to start alsa every second boot. Once working everything is good.
5. I frequently need to do updates from a terminal because the update program did not let me know it was going to do it.
6. Shutdown usually work normally, but sometimes it crashes. Restart always crashes and needs a "power button" restart.
