Hi again,

There are some unmet dependencies if installing the meta package,

---

$ sudo apt-get install root
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... 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.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

  root: Depends: root-bin but it is not going to be installed
        Depends: libroot
        Depends: libroot-dev but it is not going to be installed

E: Broken packages
