Installing on Ubuntu : Unmet dependencies #98

Closed Craigp23 closed 5 months ago

Needing some help installing Owon-VDS1022 on Ubuntu 22.04. When running sudo bash install-linux.sh I'm seeing...

===========================================================
 Build package

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 bitscope-dso : Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) but it is not installable
                Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0) but it is not installable
 owon-vds-tiny : Depends: java-runtime but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

I've attempted to install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 but said not available, try libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0

Been going round in circles for a few hours - any tips very welcome. TIA :)

Regarding the missing java-runtime, it's an old alias. It's probably no longer in the repository. Try to replace it by default-jre or any available alias for a Java runtime in install-linux.sh. The bitscope-dso has nothing to do with this project, just ignore it.

Thanks for the tip! I've searched for advice on how to use default-jre but still not clear. Is it used as a parameter on theinstall-linux.sh command line ?

It's not a command line, it's text in the install-linux.sh file . Anyway I just checked and the package java-runtime is still present with Ubuntu 22.04: https://pkgs.org/search/?q=java-runtime&on=provides

There's something wrong with your package manager. You'll have to fix it first or install the packages default-jre and /tmp/owon-vds-tiny-1.1.5-cf19.amd64.deb manually.

Thanks again!

I'm stuck unfortunately :/ I tried sudo apt install default-jre which returned...

Package default-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'default-jre' has no installation candidate```

Any tips appreciated!

Your issue is likely due to a corrupted repository list. Restore it to Ubuntu Main. https://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+reset+repository+list

florentbr commented 5 months ago

Closing since the issue has nothing to do with this project.

This resolved the issue on this machine. VDS-1022 now installed. Hope this helps someone else too. Thanks for your assistance! :)
