Agreed, I don't think this is kde/kubuntu specific, I thought it was,
but I've got a bit further ...

The bottom line is that an import statement
 from xml.parsers.expat import ExpatError, ParserCreate
is giving an 
ImportError: 
/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlplus/parsers/pyexpat.so: undefined 
symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeUTF8

Which comes down to a problem which is well understood:
http://www.python.org/doc/faq/extending.html#when-importing-module-x-why-do-i-get-undefined-symbol-pyunicodeucs2

i.e: two pythons compiled with different numbers of bytes for unicode
characters.

But, why it's not finding the right thing within the system python
(first) is the question (and what other things this might cause that
we've not yet identified).
