Hello together,

i have a recurring problem with 'apt-get upgrade'. It seems, that three libs for libqt4 (and sql) are not updated. every time the following libs appears and every time no error will be displayed.
Does anyone know a solution?

Code:
home/user # apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
  meegotouchtheme
The following packages will be upgraded:
  libqt4-sql libqt4-sql-sqlite libqt4-xml
3 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B/221kB of archives.
After this operation, 12,3kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y

Solution:
------------
1. rename filenames for packages with wrong characters (in this case ':' for '%3a') in filename not updated in /opt/var/cache/apt/archives/: '(cd /opt/var/cache/apt/archives/; mv {wrong_package_filename} {filename})'
2. manually install this files with 'dpkg -i /opt/var/cache/apt/archives/{filename}'
3. execute: 'apt-get clean; apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' to verify
