Not sure if this is relevant for the other cases, but in my case, I had the proposed repo enabled. After disabling, and roll back the dependencies libgtkd-3-0 and libvted-3-0 (https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/tilix) all was well again.

I've just received this broken update, and I don't have (never had) "proposed" enabled.

Just 3 days before the release, in the middle of all kinds of freezes, including Final Freeze for which the wiki says:

  EXTREMELY intensive, high-caution period until the FinalRelease goes out.
  ReleaseTeam and relevant section team confirmed fixes only!

  Exceptions requiring confirmation:

      Release critical bugs
      Security critical bugs
      Exceptional circumstances

The package is so obviously broken that it doesn't even start up, and it's been known (reported and confirmed here) for at least 2 weeks. How come such a package got exception approval???

Ditto to Jeremy's findings, 1.6.4-2ubuntu1 works fine here.

Okay, I can confirm too that 2ubuntu1 works. It was 1ubuntu2 that was broken, and apparently made it into Artful beta for a short while. Sorry for the noise.
