The following packages have unmet dependencies: locales: Depends: glibc-2.7-1 which is a virtual package. libgtk2.0-bin: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.12.1-3) but 2.12.1-2 is installed. Resolving dependencies... *** ERROR: search aborted by fatal exception. You may continue searching, but some solutions will be unreachable. In solution <>;[libgtk2.0-0 2.12.1-2 -> {libgtk2.0-common 2.12.1-2}, libgtk2.0-b in 2.12.1-3 -> {}, locales 2.7-0exp6 -> {}];-300: Unexpectedly non-broken dependency libgtk2.0-0 2.12.1-2 -> {libgtk2.0-common 2.1 2.1-2}! (libgtk2.0-common 2.12.1-2 is installed) Abort. Maybe its worth to notice that apt-get is not failing to provide a solution. Its solution is to keep back libgtk2.0-bin, libgtk2.0-common and locales back, which seems to be an appropriate solution.
