Bug#519022: gnome package will not install: unstable/2009/03/09

[Drew Van Zandt]

Package: gnome
Severity: important

Failure message:
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:
  gnome: Depends: gnome-desktop-environment (= 1:2.22.2~5) but it is not 
going to be installed
         Depends: gnome-games (>= 1:2.22.2) but it is not going to be 
installed
         Depends: epiphany-extensions but it is not going to be 
installed
         Depends: evolution-plugins (>= 2.22.2) but it is not going to 
be installed
         Depends: evolution-exchange (>= 2.22.2) but it is not going to 
be installed
         Depends: serpentine but it is not going to be installed
         Recommends: tomboy (>= 0.10.2) but it is not going to be 
installed
E: Broken packages

Waited a couple of updates to see if this self-repaired, but gnome is 
still uninstallable on my system.
