[Bug 519751] [NEW] Can't install python-qt3 with ppa:kubuntu-ppa/beta in the sources list for APT

[Vítor Souza]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-qt3

If I try to install package python-qt3, I get a unmet dependencies
problem. I know I'm using a PPA repository and that it is not guaranteed
to work as the stable version, nonetheless I wanted to report this here.
Maybe the solution is not very complicated and can be fixed before the
10.04 release.

Below I send the results of related commands at the terminal. I will
also attach my sources.list.

$ sudo apt-get install python-qt3
