| Hi dep,

| yes, kubuntu-default-settings-trinity is a metapackage. You can use TUI

I'd happily cut'n'paste the output here, but aptitude is not nice about
that kind of thing, so a screenshot.
I haven't tried to force it because I like my system and am disinclined to
break it, as forcing things has been known to do. I'm mostly puzzled as to
why this has suddenly come to pass -- I've upgraded a whole lot of Linux
and TDE since the last time I saw that particular error.
