Same thing is happening here. The blubuntu-look appears to depend on blubuntu-theme, which depends on gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks, and trying to install that wants to remove human-theme, ubuntu-artwork & ubuntu-desktop.

human-theme conflicts/replaces gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks, which was added in the latest blubuntu-look 0.2-0ubuntu4 (bug 263819). This effectively makes blubuntu-look conflict with ubuntu-desktop. The reason for the conflict seems to be that both packages contain a gtkrc.

The original bug also said that gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks was being added as a recommends, but it's been added as depends. I'm not sure if this was intentional or not. In any case, blubuntu-look / -theme is unable to be installed on Ubuntu Intrepid / Jaunty, so I'm marking this as Triaged/High.
