Problems with Python packages

I'm getting this error, the last few times I've run upgrade on my system:

Code:

E: python2.4-minimal: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
E: python2.4: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-minimal: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-central: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-support: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: gconf2: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: idle-python2.4: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: libgksu2-0: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-ipy: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-pygame: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: youtube-dl: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-gtk2: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: python-glade2: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

Any ideas on what could be the issue here?

It has dependency issues. Try dpkg -f to have apt figure it out.

Code:

#apt-get install -f

OR

Code:

#dpkg   --configure -a

may be switching apt to have unstable and experimental repos help;i mean apt-pinning

Thanks. I'll try this out tomorrow. It doesn't seem a critical issue so far, but one never knows...
