Yes. At least, I tried.... See below.

Being not sure, I tried to go for the installation, but none of them 
seems to be installed.
Basically, it says (I translate from my french terminal):
"Unable to update 'libqtm-bearer'. Conflict between application 
packages. Continue installation ? [Details|No|Yes]"

Then the same for the next one, and so on until the last one: 
'libqtm-versit', where the only option is "Details".

So, for each package, I can continue the installation but regarding each 
package, the message means "package not installed". And, indeed, in the 
end, when I "check for updates", it gives me the same list of 10 packages...

Well, if that's the step required to trigger the install, I am stucked 
there !
