When trying to install epiphany-browser with apt-get i get the

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
epiphany-browser: Depends: epiphany-gecko but it is not going to be

epiphany-webkit but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

How do I fix these dependency issues? Is this through something I have
installed or is this a bug with the repositories? ( I suspect it is
something I have done. )

What do you get from the command
apt-cache policy epiphany-browser epiphany-webkit epiphany-gecko


That should find epiphany-gecko as well as epiphany-browser if your
repositories are OK:
$ apt-cache policy epiphany-browser epiphany-webkit epiphany-gecko
epiphany-browser:

NOTE:
the above shows the main repository, but it is likely that a local
repository (eg us.archive.ubuntu.com or nz2.archive.ubuntu.com) is in
use instead.

Also, it shows that Ubuntu don't package epiphany-webkit in the standard
repositories.
