k3b can not be installed with apt-get

I am trying to install k3b and I get :-

Code:
root@Knoppix:~# apt-get install k3b
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  k3b: Depends: libice6 (>= 1:1.0.0) but 4.3.0.dfsg.1-13 is to be installed
       Depends: libk3b2 (>= 0.12.17) but it is not going to be installed
       Depends: libmusicbrainz4c2a (>= 2.1.4) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

This is using knoppix 3.9

Simple: these packages are not available from the repositories you use. Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list? Otherwise, add the contrib and/or non-free branches to the list.
Code:
deb ftp://ftp.XX.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free 
deb-src ftp://ftp.XX.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
Replace the XX with the 2-letter country designation for the nearest mirror to you.

Because you didn't execute my instructions properly: replace in the lines you've added the XX to uk, as you're in the UK, and try again.

Never mind, you're not the only one :-\ I've overlooked that in your first listing it mentions something about Testing. So change the referrals in those lines from stable to testing.

In order to install libice6 you need to have testing or unstable repos , comment out stable, run apt-get update and try again.

That's one of the problems you tend to run into running a mixed system like Knoppix, which is why it is NOT recommended to install Knoppix to HD.

Go through this thread and set-up a good source list:

Try apt-get dist-upgrade I don't hold much hope of it continuing to be a stable system having started with Knoppix for the base.

Sadly that did not work either, I think my sources are not set up correctly.

Code:
 apt-get update
Err http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org ./ Packages
  404 Not Found
Ign http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org ./ Release
Err http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org ./ Sources

Remove/comment out these.
Code:
# KDE 3.4 (not in sarge)
deb http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.4.0/ ./
deb-src http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.4.0/ ./
Then run the apt-get update and dist-upgrade again.
