Bug Description

Binary package hint: kde-l10n-engb

Just upgraded to Lucid and I'm getting errors with the kde l10n packages.
eg:
kde-l10n-engb:
 Depends: libkdecore5 (>=4:4.5.0) but it is not installable

I searched for libkdecore5 in synaptic, but finds nothing.
I have main, universe, restricted, and multiverse checked, as well as all the update channels (proposed, etc).

It seems that this is the case with all kde l10n packages.

I can confirm that version 4:4.4.5-0ubuntu1~lucid1 depends upon libkdecore5, that in turn in not available, breaking "kde-l10n-engb" and "kde-l10n-it".
