When I do an apt-get install kvirc i get the error:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
kvirc: Depends: kdelibs3 (>= 4:2.2.2-1) but it is not going to be installed

Fine, so apt-get install kdelibs3

but then it wants to uninstall a ton of other packages effectively breaking kde and even then kdelibs3 will not install.

I'm at my utter wits end, why the hell does package management have to be such a headache? Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? The knoppix install is practically fresh.

Thanks.
