Hello,
I've recently installed Ubuntu 16.04.4 (64-bit) while previously I was using 16.04.1 (32-bit).
It was a clean install and things are generally working fine. However, for some packages I am getting this error e.g., if I try to install VLC from default repositories I get this
Code:
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc : Depends: libgles1-mesa (>= 7.8.1) but it is not going to be installed or
libgles1
Depends: libgles2-mesa (>= 7.8.1) but it is not going to be installed or
libgles2
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Similarly if I try to install Wireshark
Code:
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
wireshark : Depends: wireshark-qt but it is not going to be installed or
wireshark-gtk but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
There are other packages as well which are important to me but are failing to be installed because of this problem. I suspect that these packages have not yet been updated with the underlying Ubuntu distribution i.e., 16.04.4
Any suggestions / help please?
