Package: libfop-java
Severity: important

libfop-java fails to install due to an unmet dependency.

# apt-get install libfop-java

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:
  libfop-java: Depends: fop but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages


Then I explicitly requested an install of fop which is now installed as:
ii  fop             0.20.5-4        XML to PDF Translator


This, however, doesn't take me any further, as I still get the
very same error output from apt-get when I try to install libfop-java.
