trouble installing ros on Ubuntu
I'm trying to get ros set up on my Linux Machine and I've been following this tutorial
http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installation/Ubuntu
When I get to step 1.4 Under install where I install ROS and I go with the Desktop-Full Install which is recommended I get the following error after entering the command: sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-desktop-full

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ros-indigo-desktop-full : Depends: ros-indigo-simulators but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Either way I can't install it and I'm not sure why. How do I fix this?
@tfoote FYI
@aadkinz It looks like apt-get is in a bad state, you can try
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgradeto resolve the issue, but that's really a shot in the dark.What platform/arch are you on?
Ubuntu 14.04
I also tried
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgradeand that didn't helpWhat is your hardware?
Do you have the universe and multiverse repositories enabled?
