Well, I really think that's a problem.

kdelibs4c2a is the kdelibs in Dapper (and probably Debian sid, maybe etch). 
It's kdelibs4c2 in Breezy - and that's the version that breezy's tellico
depends on. 

It's really not a good idea to use dpkg to install software - it's
practically guaranteed to b0rk on KDE installs, but it will be problematic
with anything involving a libc version change .  If you use the package in
breezy/universe, I would suspect that all those other dependency problems
go away (I'll guarantee the libraries ending in ...c2a).
