I could add a property on the daemon dbus interface of aptdaemon
"CacheBroken". But you also have got a package cache instance in
software center which also provides this information. So the question is
if you want to show the error outside of software center as a kind of
error dialog or only to show this in software center.

If there are broken dependencies you should call the FixBrokenDepends of
aptdaemon. But this action can result in installing or removing a lot of
packages. Especially in the case of mixed or third party repositories.
So you should show the changes to the user beforehand.

Aptdaemon tries to recover from cancelled or failed installations on
every install/remove/upgrade transaction. So this is handled
automatically. But if the recover action fails an error message gets
shown even if the secondary installation was successful.
