For example:

The following command will install all packages that match it's pattern:

  sudo apt-get install k3b-*

If I want to use that instruction but don't want to install one specific package with broken dependencies, how do I do that?

I have tried this but not works.

sudo apt-get install "$(apt-cache --no-generate pkgnames k3b | grep -v extrathemes | tr '
' ' ')" :

 sam@/home/sam/code/ros/ai/cram/roslisp_repl$ sudo apt-get install      "$(apt-cache --no-generate pkgnames k3b | grep -v extrathemes | tr '

' ' ')"

 Reading package lists... Done

 Building dependency tree       

 Reading state information... Done

 E: Unable to locate package k3b-dbg k3b-data k3b
