If you've gotten to that point, presumably you have partially updated packages that depend on those (such as evince). What worked for me was to do a $ dpkg -r libdjvulibre15 followed by a normal run of aptitude. Removing the old library doesn't cause evince to be removed, because the new version is already there, just broken. YMMV. -- Michael A.
