[Bug 460969] [NEW] Cannot install gnome meta package from 9.10 Kubuntu because of unmet dependency

[Arduous]

Public bug reported:

I have a fresh Kubuntu 9.10 install. I wanted to install gnome, but it
fails. The package gnome-vfs-obexftp is not found, but it seems it is no
more used for 9.10.

samuel at bioserver:~$ lsb_release -rd
