Package: balsa
Severity: important



-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
  APT prefers unstable
  APT policy: (500, 'unstable')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Kernel: Linux 2.4.25
Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US

I'm using Sid, latest update.  Wanted to install balsa on system for
daughter, but ran into these dependency problems.  It's been about a
week--figured any lags in packages getting updated would have been managed
by now.  The outstanding packages are not currently in Incoming.  Apt's
message follows:

----------------
hpotter:/home/daddy# apt-get install balsa
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
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.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  balsa: Depends: libgal2.0-5 (>= 1.99.10) but it is not installable
         Depends: libgtkhtml3.0-2 (>= 3.0.9) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

Cheers!
