Hello firends form Octave,
I recenty tried to install Octave on my Ubuntu 16.04 via the usual commant 'sudo apt-get install octave'.
Once I did that I encountered an error message stating:
'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:
octave : Depends: libcholmod3.0.6 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: liboctave4 (= 4.2.1-2~octave~xenial1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libosmesa6 (>= 10.2~) but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: libopenblas-base but it is not going to be installed or
libatlas3-base but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.'
I'm eager to hear if there is a solution to this problem and what is it.
You have my thanks in advance!
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely Filip Mirković.
