    Sometimes a packages needs another one to install so as well as forcing you could also check with:
    apt-get -s -b --ignore-hold install cloop-utils
    This will tell you if it needs any new packages, then add the new packages to the line until it goes through like:
    cd /var/cache/apt/archives
    dpkg -i --force-all cloop-utils........deb another_package..........deb

    or download the latest package manually.

    you must remember, knoppix isnt fully debian-compattible. thats why upgrading gives problems. kanotix is a knoppix-variant which tries to be knoppix for hdinstall. as much as possible debian-compattible. this might help...

    and you might use synaptic for fixing some of the problems, too.
