[SOLVED] New downloads for linux don't work

Recommended Posts

I have been running the 2nd gen FLIRC since it came out and never had a problem with updating.   Recently, it got held back.  So I followed the instructions on the debian 64 bit, and i get multiple unmet dependencies.  One of which doesn't exist.  I'm running 18.04, standard kernel, xubuntu desktop.

@EvilWayz please check your apt sources if they are all correct.

https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/libqt5xmlpatterns5

According to this, the libqt5xmlpatterns5 in Ubuntu 18.04 depends on qtbase-abi-5-9-5, not qtbase-abi-5-9-0 like in your case.

Is this a fresh install or did you upgrade from a previous Ubuntu version? From what I see, the qtbase-abi-5-9-0 was provided by Ubuntu 17.10.

Note, selecting 'libqt5core5a' instead of 'qtbase-abi-5-9-5'
libqt5core5a is already the newest version (5.9.5+dfsg-0ubuntu1).
