[tlug] Die, acroread, die

[Dave M G <dave@example.com>]

TLUG,

I was having some trouble printing out a particular PDF document, and I 
thought I would try some various PDF readers.

One of them, acroread, I had a little trouble installing. First, I tried 
installing from the files downloadable at Adobe. Then I learned there 
actually was a repository version.

However, my update notifier is telling me I have some broken packages. 
As expected, acroread is giving me hassles.

I just want to remove it, but I keep getting dependency errors:
sudo apt-get remove acroread
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package acroread is not installed, so not removed
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  acroread-escript: Depends: acroread but it is not going to be installed
  acroread-plugins: Depends: acroread (= 8.1.1-0medibuntu3) but it is 
not going to be installed
  mozilla-acroread: Depends: acroread (>= 7.0) but it is not going to 
be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or 
specify a solution).

Of course I try apt-get -f install, but that doesn't change anything.

How do I break out of dependency hell and get rid of these programs?
