Hello! I do apt-get update and upgrade daily to get the latest updates. Recently I was also hit by the KDE v3.4 bug (lost KDE menus) and had to reinstall a KDE component (dpgk -i ./kdelibs-data_3.3.2-6.1_all.deb) manually. See http://tinyurl.com/d7yvm or http://groups-beta.google.com/group/linux.debian.maint.kde/tree/browse_frm/thread/f29ad44ba42fdea2/0ff8d05d496d0654?rnum=1&hl=en&q=kde+debian+apt-get&_done=%2Fgroup%2Flinux.debian.maint.kde%2Fbrowse_frm%2Fthread%2Ff29ad44ba42fdea2%2Ff787695c597c5366%3Flnk%3Dst%26q%3Dkde+debian+apt-get%26rnum%3D6%26 for the full details. Since I won't be able to upgrade KDE for a while until these conflicts are resolved, how can I install and upgrade non-KDE packages?
Here's the problem with apt-get commands after updating: # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: kdelibs: Depends: kdelibs-data (>= 4:3.3.2-7) but 4:3.3.2-6.1 is installed E: Unmet dependencies.
