I solved the dependencies manually editing /var/lib/dpkg/status file,
changing the dependencies of kdelibs4 and kdelibs-bin,
 from
    "libcupsys2 (>= 1.1.19final-1)"
 to
    "libcupsys2 (>= 1.1.19final-1) | libcupsys2-gnutls10"

Then, you can install current cups and all other depending packages
(such as samba and gnome). And KDE works Ok.
