use "apt-cache policy" to see what repository is bringing in which packages.

It's unusual for a libXXX5 library to conflict with a libXXX0 library -
that's precisely why they have different package names - if we really had
to replace a package, we could use the same name.

I can say that _only_ using the official ubuntu sources + medibuntu,
gwenview-kde4 doesn't cause any removal of libraries.
