    I didn't want to try apt dist-upgrade just yet but I did try apt install
    digikam:

    # apt install digikam
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    digikam is already the newest version.
    You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
      kdebase3-devel: Depends: kdebase3 (= 3.2.3) but 3.2.1-68.15 is to be
    installed
      kdelibs3: Depends: arts (>= 1.2.3) but 1.2.1-35.4 is to be installed
    E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a
    solution).

    So is the reason that I have newer versions of dependency software than the
    update uses?
