I Just wanted to test the GNOME Shell on Ubuntu 11.10, but I'm getting the following error.

 gnome-shell : Depends: libcogl2 (>= 1.7.4) but it is not going to be installed

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I tried to install the libcog12 as well, but some packages will be removed, so I canceled because I don't want to crash my Ubuntu again:)
