This adds the features to pykde and adept necessary to run the dist-
upgrade tool.

kdelibs and kdebase get new functions to attach another process's pty to
konsole (kpty).  pykde gets support for the konsole kpart.  Finally
Adept adds a wizard to  download the dist-upgrade tool and run it.
Adept is also patched to stop it forking (KUniqueApplication), this
allows it to start new X processes since otherwise it looses xauthority
permissions.

Impact: users get a way to upgrade Kubuntu sanely, otherwise they have
to try their luck with dist-upgrade, which usually doesn't work.
