Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 geary : Depends: libgee-0.8-2 (>= 0.14.0) but 0.10.5-1ubuntu1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Install following ppa: https://launchpad.net/~vala-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

using:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vala-team/ppa

then perform an update and upgrade

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

after that, just install geary (from the daily ppa)

sudo apt-get install geary
