This package is uninstallable
Dependency is not satisfiable: libgconf2-4
Expected behavior
The classroom app should install.
Additional context: personal solution
The classroom assistant's libgconf2-4 dependency is not satisfiable because because the libgconf2-4 package was renamed to libgconf-2-4.
I fixed my problem by manually re-routing the libgconf2-4 dependency to my libgconf-2-4 package.
sudo apt install -y libgconf-2-4
ar x classroom-assistant_1.0.5_amd64.deb
tar xzf control.tar.gz
sed -i s/libgconf2-4/libgconf-2-4/ control
tar --ignore-failed-read -cvzf control.tar.gz control
ar rcs classroom-assistant_1.0.5_amd64-FIXED.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.xz
sudo dpkg -i classroom-assistant_1.0.5_amd64-FIXED.deb
