I don't recognise that package name. I know of ros-$distro-ros-base and pkgs like ros-$distro-gazebo-X, but not something like ros-gazebo-ros-base. Can you tell us where you found the command you are using?

Really? Well, as @lakehanne writes, it would be helpful if you could show where you found that something then.
