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:
  libtest-dbix-class-perl : Depends: libdata-uuid-perl (>= 1.215)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages


So, I did:
root at store:/etc/koha# apt install libdata-uuid-perl
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
   libossp-uuid16
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove it.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
   libossp-uuid-perl libsoap-lite-perl libxmlrpc-lite-perl
The following NEW packages will be installed:
   libdata-uuid-perl
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 3 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Need to get 24.8 kB of archives.
After this operation, 833 kB disk space will be freed. etc.


Now when I do:
root at store:/etc/koha# apt install libtest-dbix-class-perl
It all seems to run correctly.


And when I enter:
root at store:/etc/koha# apt install koha-common
That too seems to run correctly.


But still no love for the OPAC or admin interface.

Feels like good progress though. What next?
