Bug Description

simplepie requires the internationalisation functions in php5-intl (at least it did under Lucid, though there it failed to depend on the package, which had to be installed manually), and in Natty it fails in the same way. However, under Natty when you try to install php5-intl you find that you need to remove php5-idn and libphp-simplepie before you can complete the install. The reverse situation also occurs when trying to re-install simplepie back on top.

I'm not sure quite where this bug is, but something's definitely broken.

Appears to be fixed upstream in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611704. Can someone pull it over to the Ubuntu repositories?

As a temporary work-around, try the following:

wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/simplepie/libphp-simplepie_1.2-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i libphp-simplepie_1.2-3_all.deb
sudo apt-get install dokuwiki (assuming this is the package that requires simplepie in your installation)

All dependencies will then be met until the Ubuntu repository gets updated.
