Instead of apt-get I would use aptitude. Change your /etc/apt/sources.list,
then run aptitude, update (key U). Check that there are no broken packages
(you would see it in the second top line of aptitude), then G, go through
the list if you see something strange, and then G again and download couple
of hundred megabytes of new packages (hint: don't do it on your dial-up
connection!).
Have luck!
