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.
