Confirming.
It makes me wonder what to do, though. It wouldn't be a good idea to just go removing the file from either one of the packages. I guess somebody would have to patch koffice or koffice2 to install the icon with a different name, and for kpresenter (or -kde4) to use the different icon name.

Could it not be set that the kde3 and kde4 versions conflict? Or is that not a proper solution?

The debian installer doesn't remove kpresenter !. I removed it as a
separate entity, and was THEN able to re-install koffice-kde4. Simple
... when you find it !

As ShaneK said, the fix is simply:

  dpkg --purge kpresenter-data
  apt-get -f install

The last command should fix the situation if it was broken; if it wasn't, you can install kpresenter with:

  apt-get install kpresenter-kde4

kpresenter-kde4 needs to conflict kpresenter-data (kde3 package), otherwise file conflicts occur
