[Bug 354927] Re: kdelibs-bin says it has a dependency which is only available in backports

[Alex James]

It apparently depends on a version of kdelibs5-data which isn't
available via even with the backports repository enabled (do you have to
specify the backport version?). Manual installation via

root at amaterasu:/etc/apt# dpkg -i
/home/user/Desktop/kdelibs5-data_4.2.0-0ubuntu2~intrepid2_all.deb

fixed many of the 'Depends' errors. Now I have only:

root at amaterasu:/etc/apt# apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

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: kdebase-workspace-bin but it is not going to be installed
                   Recommends: openoffice.org-kde but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
