Failing to upgrade Ubuntu SDK on Vivid system (15.04)

[XiaoGuo, Liu]

Recently, I tried to upgrade my Ubuntu SDK on vivid (15.04) system. However, I got the following error:

liuxg@liuxg:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
[sudo] password for liuxg:

E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

When I tried to use "sudo apt-get -f install", and it gave the following error:

I have checked that libubuntugestures5 only exists on the xenial, and it does not exist on vivid and Wily. It is a problem for upgrading to the latest SDK. Also, I found the same problem for upgrading my armhf chroot inside the Ubuntu SDK.

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies:
qtdeclarative5-ubuntu-ui-toolkit-plugin:armhf : Depends: libubuntugestures5:armhf (= 1.3.1778+15.04.20151217.1-0ubuntu1) but it is not installed qtdeclarative5-ubuntu-ui-toolkit-plugin : Depends: libubuntugestures5 (= 1.3.1778+15.04.20151217.1-0ubuntu1)
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Please remove all packages from all other sources than the SDK PPA.

I'm getting this too. apt-get upgrade says:

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 qtdeclarative5-ubuntu-ui-toolkit-plugin-gles : Depends: libubuntugestures5-gles (= 1.3.1795+15.04.20160106-0ubuntu1) but it is not installed

And apt-get -f install says:

dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libubuntugestures5-gles_1.3.1795+15.04.20160106-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb (--unpack):

The only PPA I have is the stable phone overlay.

Any suggestions for getting out of this situation?
