KDEs dependencies are screwed up. libjpeg6a is from the "old-libs"
section; i.e. the libc5 compatibility stuff. KDE is actually linked
against the files from libjpegg6a (i.e. the libc6 stuff). So in this case
- --force-depend would work. On the other hand, you could install libc5
version from http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/oldlibs/libjpeg6a.html
and keep dpkg happy by satisfying all of the dependencies...
