libqt4-dbg causing kde 4.4 install to fail for amd64 packages

[JW]

System Summary:
Kubuntu 9.10 amd64
KDE PPA enabled (for 4.4.0)
Linux 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 02:39:34 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Issue 'Summary':
I added the kubuntu ppa to my sources.lst and proceeded to perform an update from the CLI. Of course, there were many packages held back, so I then did an install for all of those packages. The process then got hung up on libqt4-dbg.

I ran "sudo apt-get upgrade" again and received the following set of issues:

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.

I then tried exactly that: sudo apt-get -f install and received the following output (sharing all):

I tried running "sudo apt-get remove libqt4-dbg" and that did not work. I ran "sudo dpkg -r libqt4-dbg" and that successfully removed the package but upon running "sudo apt-get upgrade" again, it gave me the same original error.

What kung-fu trick am I missing here to get this to install?

[JW (arch0njw)]

I think I filed this wrong originally. I have now selected kde4-backports which I believe is the correct project.

I think I managed to fix this.

First, I uninstalled all *-dbg packages.

$ dpkg -l | grep dbg | grep ii
$ sudo dpkg -r graphicsmagick-dbg kdebase-dbg kdebase-workspace-dbg kdegraphics-dbg kdelibs-dbg kdenetwork-dbg kdepim-dbg kdeplasma-addons-dbg libc6-dbg libcurl3-dbg qt-x11-free-dbg libqt4-dbg

Then I ran "sudo apt-get upgrade" (aliased to "upgrade") and continued uninstalling debug packages until it worked.

  700 upgrade
  701 sudo dpkg -r kdelibs5-dbg kdepimlibs-dbg
  702 upgrade
  703 sudo dpkg -r kdebase-runtime-dbg
  704 upgrade
  705 sudo dpkg -r kscreensaver-xsavers

I also had to uninstall kscreensaver-xsavers, but could install it again after the upgrade was complete.
