apt - Problem installing vlc - unmet dependencies - Ask Ubuntu


update : able install aptitude, automatically fixed version of bunch of packages. however, ricotz packages still making problems in other areas.

i tried install vlc on rather fresh installation of ubuntu 16.10 i'm getting error :

reading package lists... done building dependency tree        reading state information... done packages not installed. may mean have requested impossible situation or if using unstable distribution required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of incoming. following information may resolve situation:  following packages have unmet dependencies:  vlc : depends: libgles1-mesa (>= 7.8.1) not going installed or                 libgles1 e: unable correct problems, have held broken packages. 

so tried

sudo apt-get install libgles1-mesa 

which in turn gives me

the following packages have unmet dependencies:  libgles1-mesa : depends: libglapi-mesa (= 12.0.3-1ubuntu2) 12.1~git20161011.fc8b358b-0ubuntu0ricotz installed e: unable correct problems, have held broken packages. 

i've tried

sudo apt-get install libglapi-mesa=12.0.3-1ubuntu2 

as well, tells me no component going installed.
