package kdesudo 3.3.1-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2

[Elf]

Binary package hint: kdesudo

kdebase-runtime was broken after I switched to Gnome, and none of the suggestions I could gather would fix it. It said that this package was also in kdesudo, and complete removal of this didn't sound too scary, so I tried it. This, too, failed.
