This file overlaps with a file in gnome's account- plugin- facebook accounts/ services/ facebook- im.service
/usr/share/
and kaccounts-providers has a file which overlaps with gnome's account- plugin- google accounts/ providers/ google. provider
/usr/share/
gnome and kde need to be co-installable so these files should be renamed to not overlap.
As a separate but related issue if ktp explodes because gnome accounts-plugins are installed that should also be gracefully delt with.
Reproducible: Always
