Some packages could not be installed

Post by lugegigi »

Hello,

Running Ubuntu 22.10 kinetic kudu.

When attempting sudo apt-get install deluge, I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 deluge-common : Depends: python3-rencode but it is not installable
                 Depends: python3-twisted (>= 11.1) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: python3-zope.interface but it is not going to be installed
                 Recommends: python3-setproctitle but it is not going to be installed
                 Recommends: python3-geoip but it is not installable
                 Recommends: geoip-database but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I'm kinda new to this - my guess is it's telling me to install those python packages? Is there a command for that?

Thank you!

check your /etc/apt/sources.list universe repository must be active because python3-twisted is on universe.
to add it just $ sudo add-apt-repository universe
$ sudo apt-get update
and then try again
$ sudo apt-get install deluge
