Installation Issue on Ubuntu 16.04.1 #421

Closed kelunik closed 7 years ago

Currently I can't install paper-gtk-theme because of unmet dependencies. Previously I had it installed, but it has been uninstalled by an update and I missed it in the list of packages to be removed.

I guess this is an issue with libgtk2.0, no? "gtk2-engines-pixbuf : Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (= 2.24.30-1ubuntu1) but 2.24.30-1ubuntu1.16.04.1 is to be installed" seems strange.

I solved it thanks to geser in #ubuntu-packaging.

It's due to xenial-proposed being only activated for main. You have to update your /etc/apt/sources.list and change deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-proposed main restricted to deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial-proposed main restricted universe.

After that, sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade and installation works fine.
