When i cast kdebase-workspace4 it bombs on install because it's trying to
create the directory /usr/share/xsessions/ but a file already exists by
that name.

Does kde3 use a single file and kde4 use a directory?

The contents of /usr/share/xsessions is:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=KDE
Comment=This session logs you into KDE
Exec=startkde
TryExec=startkde
# no icon yet, only the top three are currently used
Icon=
Type=Application

Can i just make a xsessions directory and put this file in it?
