Platform: Kubuntu Vivid 15.04
KDE 4.14.8
Plasma 5.3.2
Qt 5.4.1
Kernel 3.19.0-30-generic (64-bit)

The plug-ins package will not install due to this error:
#:~$ sudo apt-get install cairo-dock-plug-ins
Reading package lists... 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.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cairo-dock-plug-ins : Depends: libical1 (>= 1.0) but it is not installable
Recommends: cairo-dock-plug-ins-dbus-interface-python (>= 3.4.99.alpha1.1~20150103~git3269~7dde429-0ubuntu1~ppa0~vivid) but it is not going to be installed

Additionally, libcal1 has been replaced with libcal1a
This appears to be the problem. Please advise.
Thank you in advance.

[SOLVED] Disabled all apt sources to cairo-dock repos. Clean, update and reinstalled perfectly with plugins and dependencies.
Developers, please check this for those whom added the repos.

It's actually
libical1
. Yes, experiencing the same thing with installing plug-ins. Fails to install due to this dependency issue. Kubuntu Vivid 15.04 installs
libical1a
which the dependency for cairo-dock-plug-ins breaks.

Getting this error message upon installation of plug-ins:
cairo-dock-plug-ins:
Depends: libical1 (>=1.0) but it is not installable
Recommends: cairo-dock-plug-ins-dbus-interface-python but it is not going to be installed

And this when trying to install the dbus interface for python but there are no broken packages. This is a misnomer of the above:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cairo-dock-plug-ins-dbus-interface-python : Depends: cairo-dock-plug-ins (>= 3.4.99.alpha1.1~20150103~git3269~7dde429-0ubuntu1~ppa0~vivid) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
