This seems to have been due to an old version of kdebase-runtime-data-common being installed from before the release candidates.
To fix this issue please run "sudo dpkg --force-overwrite --install /var/cache/apt/archives/kdeartwork-theme-icon-kde4_4%3a4.0.0-0ubuntu1~gutsy1~ppa1_all.deb" then make sure to do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
