No, I try but it has (so far) unmeetable dependencies.  Farther down
the unmet dependencies chain, I get this message:

kdesktop-trinity : Depends: binutils (< 2.23) but 2.23.90.20131017-1
is to be installed

Perhaps I need to check my repositories ... force some earlier
versions ... look into dist-upgrade ... etc.
Now almost 02:00 here, will respond later today.
