Indeed you weren't the only one, but went under the radar because the problem appeared after an (apparently harmless) virtuoso upgrade, not in the initial kde 4.10.5 upgrade; in fact I realized because of your post. Thanks!

More news - KDE SC 4.10.5 is now being uploaded to sid by Debian. I recommend you very much to use (or keep using) kdenext to avoid breakages.

KDE SC 4.10.5 installed and working fine here...thanks Santa for the fix and the update.

After KDE 4.10.5 packages are fully uploaded to unstable in the coming days, should we then disable kdenext?

Confirmed.  After dist-upgrade no more errors.  Thanks again, Santa.

Only thing I discovered is Digikam camera import does not work. Camera is a Kodak Easyshare c1505 which is detected properly but the import option does nothing.

No, you shouldn't, there are still few issues in the debian packages so a few packages have a higher version than the debian version, also there is some extra stuff like kio-mtp and kscreen, not packaged in debian. Also kdepim is being kept at 4.4.11 and is just optional to install the newer 4.10.x using kdenext/kdepim-ng. Once the newer kdepim is tested enough and we get our isos ready for that, we will move on to the new version.

And in any case in one month or so the kde 4.11.0 is going to be released, so perhaps would be available in kdenext.

Last time I looked, I couldn't find kio-mtp.  Thanks for including it.  Installing and using it gets me an option to open it up in Dolphin, but, like Fedora and openSUSE I get the "Your phone needs to be rooted" error.  But, unlike the others, I can't get Digikam to download the pictures in siduction.  It may be that they're on Digikam 3.2 and we're still using 3.1, or, more likely, I'm still missing something in the setup.  I tried mtp and ptp with Digikam.

kio-mtp hasn't been touched since March.  I guess the recent Google changes haven't been dealt with yet.

Or it might mean that libmtp needs some love.
