Public bug reported:

This only occurs in Gutsy, clean install. I tried to install sylpheed-
claws-gtk2, and it gave me the following error(s):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install sylpheed-claws-gtk2
Reading package lists... 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:
  sylpheed-claws-gtk2: Depends: claws-mail (>= 2.10.0-3ubuntu3) but it is not 
going to be installed
                       Depends: claws-mail (< 2.10.0-3ubuntu3.1~) but it is not 
going to be installed
E: Broken packages

So, I installed claws-mail myself (only to discover that sylpheed-claws-
gtk2 is just a transitional package) but it still reports the above. Is
apt-get confused or what? ;)

I can use my mail now, but it'd be nice to have this fixed up.
