I tried to install python wrappers for OpenKinect on Ubuntu 12.04, but I can't due this error:

$ sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev 
python2.7-dev : Depends: libexpat1-dev but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libssl-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Python wrapper requires these dependencies:

  1. Cython
  2. python-dev (error above)
  3. python-numpy

how can I install python-dev?
