Set up RPi for sbitx development #sbitxedits


 

I'm trying to set up a clean install of the latest Raspian Bullseye for sbitx development. I'm following the instructions in the install.txt file.

All goes well until the step "sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev". It fails with the message:

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:
?libgtk-3-0 : Depends: libwayland-client0 (>= 1.20.0) but 1.18.0-2~exp1.1 is to be installed
? ? ? ? ? ? ? Recommends: libgtk-3-bin but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

apt list --upgradeable -a outputs:

libgtk-3-0/stable 3.24.24-4+rpt7+deb11u2 armhf [upgradable from: 3.24.24-4+rpt4+deb11u2]
libgtk-3-0/now 3.24.24-4+rpt4+deb11u2 armhf [installed,upgradable to: 3.24.24-4+rpt7+deb11u2]
libgtk-3-0/stable 3.24.24-4+deb11u2 armhf

This appears to be a bug in the Raspi repositories. Others are reporting the same thing unrelated to sBitx.


 

Which operating system are you using, Mark?
There is some option in apt-get that pulls the dependencies in as well.

RaspiOS Bullseye, the latest release from the Raspberry Pi Imager software.

I would do it according to the description below:

I see it's not the latest, but the commands are usable.

None of the suggestions in the links seem to work. I¡¯m still getting the same error. I really think something is messed up in the Raspi repo. libgtk-3-0 wants to install libwayland-client0 version 1.20.0 or greater, but the latest in the repo is version 1.18.0.2.


 

Haven't tried that one yet but the likely case is a PPA is missing and therefore
anything associated cannot be fetched by APT.

It looks the repo is fixed. I'm able to install libgtk-3-dev and build sbitx again.


 

If it's not a secret, what did you do to get everything resolved and successfully installed?

Just follow steps 1 to 4 in the install.txt document in the source code repo.
