They're not compatible.  ibkml adds various libkml_ methods directly
in their embedded minizip source.  That's sort of the wrong way to do
it, and it would be nice to get that fixed, but it's unlikely to
happen any time soon.

The best solution for now is to add appropriate conflicts between the packages.

Best wishes,
Mike
