I believe I'm having the same/similar problem. Adept fired up suggesting
I uninstall some kde packages. Thinking they would be replaced with new
ones, I clicked 'apply' and it subsequently uninstalled itself and most
of my kde installation (konqueror, dolphin, kdelibs, etc). Similar
problem when trying to reinstall:


r...@amaterasu:/etc# apt-get install kubuntu-desktop                            
       
Reading package lists... Done                                                   
       
Building dependency tree                                                        
       
Reading state information... Done                                               
       
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have               
       
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable              
       
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created              
       
or been moved out of Incoming.                                                  
       

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against         
that package should be filed.                                          
The following information may help to resolve the situation:           

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kubuntu-desktop: Depends: kde-window-manager but it is not going to be 
installed
                   Depends: kdebase-workspace-bin but it is not going to be 
installed
                   Depends: ksysguard but it is not going to be installed       
     
                   Recommends: kate but it is not going to be installed
