You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
live-config : Depends: live-config-sysvinit but it is not going to be installed or
live-config-backend
Recommends: console-tools but it is not installable
refractasnapshot-base : Depends: live-config-sysvinit (>= 2.0.15) but it is not going to be installed or
live-config-systemd but it is not installable or
live-config-upstart but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

nadir wrote:It might have something to do with the init system (well: it rather does). Try to figure out which init system you use (systemd or upstart or, rather not, sysv). Try to install or apt-cache search for that package, which is missing as a dependency (apt-cache search live-config-upstart ; if you use upstart).
Do that until someone can tell you more, as a first shot (iow: i really don't know for sure. Neither initsystems nor livebuilder nor liveCD's nor refractatools. I can use them, but thats about it).
