vim-gtk package broken after apt-get dist-upgrade

[Gastón Kleiman]

Binary package hint: vim-gtk

The last time I ran `apt-get dist-upgrade`, vim-gtk got uninstalled. Whenever I try to reinstall it, I get the following error:

$ sudo apt-get install vim-gtk
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... 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:
  vim-gtk: Depends: vim-gui-common (= 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7) but 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7.1 is to be installed
           Depends: vim-common (= 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7) but 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7.1 is to be installed
           Depends: vim-runtime (= 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7) but 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu7.1 is to be installed

I'm using the following sources for apt:

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep -v "^#" | grep -v "^\s*$"

Thanks for your bug report!

Please check what's version of "vim-gtk" it tries to install is. You can look this up on Synaptic, for example.

You seem to be missing security updates for universe and multiverse and vim-gtk is in universe. Adding universe and multiverse for feisty-security should resolve your issue.
