Ah! Well I wonder how come you got from backports but I don't have one.

More importantly, I wonder how I can get my system to realise that one is
available.

I just did a Synaptic | Reload (again) and then searched for libkexiv2-7,
and synaptic insists that there is no such package available.

Do you know how I can get a clean list of all the packages available from
the backports repository? I'd like to see if libkexiv2-7 appears in such a
list.

I'd much rather not do a "force"... after all, synaptic is right in
refusing to install kdeplasma-addons, because it believes that libkexiv2-7
is not available.

I'm on a 64-bit system; I wonder if the 64-bit libkexiv2-7 package is maybe
missing from the repository (just guessing wildly; but something's
obviously wrong).
