Hi,
I think that will get eventually resolved, but I am just curious how I can
find the root cause of this upgrade issue.
Hmmm.. root cause seems to be aptitude package dependency resolver.
This is so typical ... I like aptitude but I do not like this
happening.
plasma-dataengines-workspace : Depends: libkworkspace4abi2 (= 4:4.11.2-3)
but
4:4.11.3-1 is to be installed.
there is certainly plasma-dataengines-workspace Version: 4:4.11.3-1, which
depends on libkworkspace4abi2 (= 4:4.11.3-1)
so why is aptitude complaining about this?
There may be some packages which want 4:4.11.2-3 version.
This is the new updated text from my Debian Refrence:
The package dependency resolver of the aptitude command tends to
suggests mass package removals when packages in unstable is temporary
inconsistent. This situation is a bit frightening. Usually, apt-get
dist-upgrade should resolve this situation. This situation seems to be
caused mostly by the version skew among packages depended or recommended
by a meta-package such as gnome-core.

Hmmapt-get dist-upgrade gets to the same conclusion:
blackbox:~# apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and
are no longer required:
libkwineffects1abi5 libkwinglutils1abi2
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
Done
