It seems a bit strange that aptitude tells me kdelibs4-dev is 'unused' since that package is marked as manually installed and aptitude just suggested upgrading it as a solution. :-( For the record, 'aptitude install konqueror kdelibs4-dev' works fine: $ aptitude -s install konqueror kdelibs4-dev Reading package lists...
