Hi,
Same problem today for me.
To solve this, I need to manually backup the file :
sudo mv /etc/xdg/Trolltech.conf{,.old}
Then fix the update :
sudo apt-get install -f
After this, the file is not created, so I don't understand why dpkg complains
about the overwrite of the file.
If needed, you could rename the backup to restore the file :
sudo mv /etc/xdg/Trolltech.conf{.old,}
