I am trying to install msyql-workbench in my ubuntu 12.10 using the following command

sudo apt-get install mysql-workbench

but it shows the following error.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mysql-workbench : Depends: python-all but it is not going to be installed
               Recommends: mysql-utilities but it is not installable

I have tried 

sudo apt-get install python-all

but it shows the error,

Try making a sudo apt-get install python-all and sudo apt-get install mysql-utilities. And then try again.

Run this command instead:

sudo apt-get -f install

After that MySQL Workbench should be installed fine.

Make sure you selected Ubuntu Linux from the drop down. Here
