Seem that I have dependency error but don't know how to resolved it.
I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and tried to install libgnutls-dev but got an error as follow:
lutfijw@HTPC:~$ sudo apt-get install libgnutls-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
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:
libgnutls-dev : Depends: libtasn1-6-dev but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libp11-kit-dev (>= 0.4) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I'm also tried to install the dependency libtasn1-6-dev and libp11-kit-dev but still having the same issue. I'm also tried to use apt-get -f but still not work.
Please advise how to resolve it.
