Hi,
I am having problems updating my Debian Sid system (MEPIS, actually). The system has been running fine and updates worked well for months until a few days ago when I encountered a problem with kdelibs-data. I've now put the system into a state where kdelibs-data will not install, not even with apt-get -f install, and not with apt-get --fix-missing dist-upgrade. This appears to keep many other packages from installing/updating as well. Any hints how to proceed?
Thanks, Charlie

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kdelibs4: Depends: kdelibs-data (>= 4:3.3.0) but 4:3.2.3-4 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
