Unstable has a problem somewhere - but where?



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

My kde is installed from unstable using aptitude - where I select "kde" and it 
automatically brings in the rest.

I have just updated the package lists (using the u key) and now aptitude wants 
to uninstall most of kde.

I suspect there is a problem with some of the packages - kdemultimedia seems 
to have unsatisfiable dependencies - but I am not sure that should then cause 
all of kde to be removed.

Questions

a) Has something happened to a recent upload to lose most of kdemultimedia?

b) Why when I try manually selecting another kde meta package (eg kdenetwork) 
and trying to tell it manually install does it just show broken dependencies.  
However, as I track each one down in aptitude (by selecting enter and looking 
at the packages on which this package depends) each one shows unsatisfied 
dependencies but if I eventually get to a leaf node (ie a package not 
dependant on anything else) and manually select it for install - I can do 
this.  Does this imply some change to the package dependenacies of kde?

Puzzled
