apt-get install qtwrt-experimental


after that, tap the TwimGo.wgt file to install twimgo.

i hope it would help you to use twimgo again
I tried it this way, had to disable extras-devel in order purging of qtwrt to work. Afterwards I reenabled extras-devel.

I did not use your second purge cmd as shown (the complex line) because the expression inside the backquotes returned a list of some twenty package names, many good ol' friends... was not sure I wanted to purge all those. The only pkg related to wrt was the widget, which I then purged manually.
(Also I could not find out the exact meaning of the dpkg status flag 'rc'. It's even not in the manpage. Apparently everybody except me knows what the flags mean...)

The final cmd apt-get install qtwrt-experimental led me into exact dependency hell where I was before, downloading the exact same libs and also could not install 3 of them for the same reasons as with qtwrt.

Facit is, I still have no TwimGo...
