Quick googling for the error gives some suggestions.

Try to update package lists with "apt-get update" first.
"dpkg --get-selections | grep hold" to see if there are really held
packages.
"aptitude install <package>" might give better description of the problem
or offer choices to fix the situation.
"aptitude why-not <package>" might tell you why it won't install the
package.

You may need to go through the packages recursively until you find the root
of the problem.
