 E: Broken packages

If you will try to install the vim package 'apt-get install vim', you will get the error:

 The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 vim: Depends: vim-common (= 1:7.0-035+1ubuntu5) but 1:7.0-164+1ubuntu6~edgy1 is to be installed

Solution: Remove and install vim again:

 apt-get remove --purge vim-common ; apt-get install vim

Remove the 'edgy-backports' line from /etc/apt/sources.list

Once the vim package is updated/installed well, try again to install LinuxMCE.
