It's a little bit of struggle to get it installed but a simulation of 
the effort here seems like it would succeed in the output below 
acp=apt-cache policy and agis=apt-get -s install you would have to 
adjust the packages to be installed to your particular situation. About 
halfway through I used another console for the output for the acp to 
not make the post any longer than it had to be to show the process of 
finding and naming the packages needed for install.

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:
  libqt3-mt-dev: Depends: xlibs-pic but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
