Louzbeck,
I agree that it is possible to get these packages installed by manually
removing the conflicting files. My concern is, what happens the next
time I upgrade these packages? Will apt notice that some files have
changed? So I learned about pinning and snapshot.debian.org to get old
packages, and added the following to my /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20120807T092541Z/ sid main
apt seemed to get confused by the mutli-arch conflicts while downgrading
so I had to purge all the packages including qdbus and *everything* that
used it. (Now I really appreciate yum's atomic operations, history, and
undo.)
Here is the pinning I used:
# cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/qt
Package: qdbus
Pin: version 4:4.8.2-2
Pin-Priority: 1001
Package: libqtgui4
Pin: version 4:4.8.2-2

Package: libqtgui4:i386
