Fruitless installation attempts: "Back in Time" backup program at Kubuntu 22.04 LTS.

[Bastiaan Gijsbertus Roufs]

Hello Everybody.

I am trying to get started with the "Simple backup"  program "Back in 
Time" at Kubuntu 22.04 LTS. However, so far, I have complications.

On one hand, I DO manage to install.....

"backintime-common" via the terminal....;

"Back in Time Helper" via "Discover". This is a KDE5 graphical front end 
for Back in Time.

So far, I did manage to find any way to launch "Back in Time Helper". I 
cannot find it via K-Menu - also not via Discover, Synaptic, Muon, 
Terminal or Dolphin.

At Discover I see two versions of "Back in Time":  a root version or a 
"normal"

When trying to install either versionr, I get the following feedback:

Dependency resolution failed;

Too few items to process.

When trying to install via "Synaptic package manager", I get the 
following feedback.....

backintime-qt4:
Could not apply changes. Fix broken packages first!

At Muon package manager, I get the following feedback....

The "backintime-qt4" package could not be marked for installation or 
upgrade:
     Depends: backintime-qt4, but it is not installable

 From terminal.......

bas at Viaconsensus-iter:~$ sudo apt-get install  backintime-qt4

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.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
backintime-qt : Depends: libnotify-bin but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


I did try to install "libnotify-bin", however, this did not deliver any 
result.

bas at Viaconsensus-iter:~$ sudo apt-get install libnotify-bin
[sudo] password for bas:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package libnotify-bin is not available, but is referred to by another 
package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libnotify-bin' has no installation candidate
bas at Viaconsensus-iter:~$

Can anybody provide me with ideas that help to get "Back in Time" 
installed at Kubuntu 22.04 LTS?

Yours.

Bas.
