Bug Description

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kactivitymanagerd : Breaks: kactivities (< 5.20~) but 5.18.0-0ubuntu1 is to be installed

It seems that kactivitymanagerd is not co-installable with kactivities. However, kactvities requires plasma-framework, which requires libkf5activities5, which requires kactivitymanagerd.

It seems that krita is the seeded package in Ubuntu Studio, that pulls in kactivities. It may be the krita/calligra-libs/libkactivities6/kactivities dependency chain that needs fixing.

For now, I have removed krita from the graphics seed. The meta package will need updating.

Kaj has uploaded the meta package, and I have asked for it to be unblocked on ubuntu-release.

In the meantime, I have successfully installed krita (apt-get) in a fresh Ubuntu 1610 (Yakkety) VM. It seems that the Live CD tries harder to install recommends. We should probably try blacklisting kactivities instead of dropping krita.

Krytarik has re-added krita back to the seeds, as it seems that the kactivities dependency situation has been fixed.
