[Gambas-user] Mint 17 ppa update problem

[Charlie Ogier]

Hi,

I did a standard update and Gambas 3.12.0 was one of them and Gambas is
now not usable. This is on Mint 17 (Ubuntu 14:04).

I did an 'sudo apt-get -f install' to try and fix the broken packages
that occurred and I got the response below. Nothing I have tried fixes
it. Any help appreciated.
