Andre will know a better solution for this one.

You should always be able to re-install the mp-harmattan meta package
and by this remove all the new packages that are problematic. If you get 
issues with this, dpkg --remove or --purge for problematic packages that were 
coming with the N9 install should always get you in a reverted state again.
In very rare cases you might need one of the "force" options of dpkg.

Maybe if you get someone in a chat this is done a lot better interactively.
