I am in the same situation and have the same problem.
I want to PURGE revelation but this is not possible as the OP has already noted.
Also because of this apt-get -f install wants to install a number of packages which I do not want and are prerequisites of revelation:

Please tell us what can be done to resolve the issue.
Thank you very much, Bob
