Had the same issue here. jovie which I never used was installed and depends on 
kde-runtime. 
apt/apt-get couldn't resolve it. I had to:

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/kde-cli-tools-data_4%3a5.24.2-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite   
/var/cache/apt/archives/kde-cli-tools_4%3a5.24.2-1_amd64.deb

Hi,

I can add a Breaks in kde-cli-tools but I won't stop the migration, 
because your situation is quite the exception. 
kde-runtime shouldn't exist on your computer anymore. It is an old Qt 4 
library that was removed from Debian a couple of years ago.
Why you still have it installed and why you never removed it, I don't 
know.
