Die you try apt-get -f install yet, as apt-get proposed? Also try to
install the problematic packages, e.g.

apt-get install kdebase3
or
apt-get install kdebase

If these are held back because of other packages that "are not going to
be installed", install those packages and repeat, until you find the
problem.
