Re: Installing under Ubuntu (ubuntu-22.04.1-desktop-amd64) fails - cannot install dependant libraries.


 

This was under a clean install of Ubuntu ... the only thing installed prior to Kicad was "Notepad++" under "Wine"

Perhaps that has some bearing ?

I'll try again later today and post the screen dump.

A while back I discovered the hard way that there was a library
compatibility problem having both Kicad and the latest version of
Freecad installed on Linux (hopefully now fixed). So we at least we
now know that that is not the problem, though of course it could be some
app other than Freecad causing the same problem.

I think the next thing to do is take a closer look at the output from
apt install.

No, Freecad is NOT installed ... is there a dependency ??

Do you have Freecad installed, by any chance?

I am looking to migrate from Windows 10 to Ubuntu
"ubuntu-22.04.1-desktop-amd64" and have tried several suggestions
including the following via the shell :-

|sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:kicad/kicad-6.0-releases sudo apt
update sudo apt install --install-recommends kicad|

They all fail in a similar way it was unable to install certain
dependant libraries (I'll try to get a screen dump tomorrow).

Any help/advice welcome.
