All I see is:
  gcj-4.1: Depends: libgcj7-dev (= 4.1.2-12) but it is not going to be installed
  libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (= 2.10.12-2) but it is not going to be installed
  libxul-dev: Depends: libxul0d (>= 1.8.1.4) but it is not going to be installed
              Depends: libxul0d (< 1.8.1.4-2.1~) but it is not going to be installed
              Depends: xulrunner but it is not going to be installed

And I still fail to see how libxul-dev dependencies are responsible of
any trouble. See
