Here's what I get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
build-essential is already the newest version.
libssl-dev is already the newest version.
libboost-all-dev is already the newest version.
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:
 libdb++-dev : Depends: libdb5.1++-dev (>= 5.1.25-2~) but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

How do I fix this? o.O


libdb++-dev  without a version number assumes version 5.1 but if you're on ubuntu 13.10 , you'll want version 5.3  so just change libdb++-dev to libdb5.3++-dev and you're golden

Perfecto, thanks! So once I compile my own libgmp, do I need to recompile primecoind?
