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:
  pam-pkcs11: Depends: libldap2 (>= 2.1.17-1) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

[Andrew Starr-Bochicchio (andrewsomething)]

Quick package search shows that libldap2 hasn't been in the repos since Gutsy.

 I'd assume the dep should be libldap-2.4-2 needs to be investigated though.

[Andrew Starr-Bochicchio (andrewsomething)]

Hmm... Looking at debian/control, there is no hard Depends on libldap2. There is a build depends on libldap2-dev which is in Intrepid.

So the problem must be ing the Depends on: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}

[Cesare Tirabassi (norsetto)]

Why is this confirmed?
There is no pam-pkcs11 binary package in Ubuntu, and the binary of pam-pkcs11 (libpam-pkcs11) has as a depends libldap-2.4-2.

This is in universe.
And according to packages.ubuntu.com:

Please consider filing a bug or asking a question via Launchpad before contacting the maintainer directly.

Cesare, is contacting the maintainer directly the right step to take?

Hi mahfiaz,

Can you attach the result of the following commands:
apt-cache policy libpam-pkcs11
apt-cache policy pam-pkcs11

[mahfiaz (mahfiaz)]

Thank you, fabrice_sp, now I see it really isn't ubuntu package at all. Sorry for making you all do some extra work.
