[Ubuntu] How to fix the unmet dependencies for grass-gui ?

[Carlos Cerdán]

Hi Johan

Well... I think there isn't error, QGIS doesn't works with GRASS 7.0,
doesn't yet, so, in order to work with QGIS and his GRASS plugin, I think
it's better to have the stable repository and leave ubuntugis for a while
or... Am I mistaken?

Kind regards,

Carlos
