Synaptic is reporting a broken package, but the instructions as to how
to proceed in this situation are exceedingly unclear.
Anyway. Something is obviously wrong, and it appears to be a TDE
packaging error of some kind and I thought I should post here to put
the issue before people who understand this a lot better than I do.

I also got that same message, and now I am stuck because of broken
packages held.

Your mission,
should you decide to accept it...
In Synaptic, at the bottom left, click on "custom filters"
then click on broken, to view broken packages.
To fix broken packages, in the text menu, at the top, click on edit, then
click on fix broken packages.
Good luck,
Kate
