kdebase upgrade 3.1.3, apt sources not including ftp.kde.org, how to interpret the results of apt-get errors?
When I try a "apt-get -t untable dist-upgrade", I notice kdebase is
being held back.
So I tried to do an upgrade of kdebase "apt-get -t unstable install
kdebase". It says it can't because of a dependency on sysguard. So I
try to install sysguard, and it says it has a dependency on sysguardd,
and sysguardd has a dependency on libsensors which is not installable,
no such package. I appear to have the same problem as the other fellow
who is trying to install kdebase 3.1.3. Since I already have 3.1.2
installed I don't see as I have to upgrade, but I am nonetheless eager
to learnwhat is *really* going on here...
Does this essentially mean that the Debian unstable branch does not have
a complete working set of packages? Have I apprehended the situation,
or has the situation eluded me? If you could advise, I'd be grateful.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
kdebase: Depends: ksysguard (>= 4:3.1.3-1) but 4:3.1.2-1 is to be
installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
