I had a similar problem two days ago trying to update 'libwx2.6-dev' from backports.
'apt-get' failed package upgrade due to  unmet dependencies and I was unable to fix the problem with 'apt -f install'.
A debian user suggested me to fix the problem using synaptic and filtering defective packages..  it did the job.

Now I'm doubtful: is it safe using backports? why 'apt-get -f install' did not solve the problem?
