this is what I get when I went to install xorg-dev(among other things..):
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
  exim4 exim4-daemon-light 

and when it was over:
 exim4 depends on exim4-daemon-light | exim4-daemon-heavy | 
exim4-daemon-custom; however:
  Package exim4-daemon-light is not configured yet.
  Package exim4-daemon-heavy is not installed.
  Package exim4-daemon-custom is not installed.
dpkg: error processing exim4 (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 exim4-daemon-light
 exim4
