Do you have unofficial packages installed? I have those exact packages
on hold now because of vodafone-mobile-connect from betavine.

Oh. So it won't install python-twisted, because it depends on... hey,
wait a second... Let's check something...
http://packages.debian.org/sid/python-twisted-core says that the

$ aptitude show python-twisted-core
