I resolved this by force removing the installed libsdl-ttf2 version:

Code:
$ dpkg --force-all -r libsdl-ttf2.0-0
Afterward running apt-get install -f resolved the issue and installed both packages without problems. (logic? no clue.)
this solves the issue, many thanks. can you tell us why we removed libsdl-ttf2.0-0 and not libsdl-ttf2.0 ?

also, how different is apt-get install -f from apt-get -f install
