Can you post your /etc/apt/sources.list? Also, what version of Ubuntu are you using?

It sounds like maybe you haven't enabled all the appropriate repositories so it can't get the dependencies.

Try running 'apt-get update' and see if it gives you errors; if it does, it probably asks you to run some specific command which should fix dependency problems. I've encountered the error several times when using apt, and it's really annoying; first time I really had problems trying to figure out how to get around the problem, since then the 'fix' that apt asked me to do was insufficient.

Apt's man-page should shed some light, too.

you need to add "sudo" before "apt-get"
Code:
sudo apt-get update
