I am following this link to install Qt on my PC.

When I type sudo apt-get install build-essential g++ libqt4-core libqt4-dev libqt4-gui qt4-doc qt4-designer, I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

build-essential is already the newest version (12.1ubuntu2).

g++ is already the newest version (4:5.3.1-1ubuntu1).

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:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I followed this link for help but after typing this command sudo apt install libqt4-designer libqt4-opengl libqt4-svg libqtgui4 libqtwebkit4, I am supposed to make a script file but i can't understand properly how to do that.

This command ran successfully sudo apt-get install libqglviewer-dev libqglviewer2 but this sudo apt-get install libboost1.48-all-dev didn't, i got this error:

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package libboost1.48-all-dev E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'libboost1.48-all-dev' E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libboost1.48-all-dev'

The output of apt-cache policy libqtcore4 is:
libqtcore4: Installed: 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5ubuntu2 Candidate: 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5ubuntu2 Version table: *** 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5ubuntu2 500 500 http://pk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:4.8.6+git64-g5dc8b2b+dfsg-3+deb8u1 500 500 http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian jessie/main amd64 Packages

How can all of this be fixed?

Please add output of apt-cache policy libqtcore4 to the question. Normal Qt packages should not have deb8u1 suffix. From where did you get them?

@N0rbert I added the output of apt-cache policy libqtcore4. I got no packages from anywhere. I installed ubuntu 16.04 and started installing softwares. You want me to download qt4-x11 packages from the link you have provided?

If you are running plain Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial), then you should remove all Debian jessie mentions from your sources.list files. And then retry.

As you are running plain Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial), then you should remove all Debian jessie mentions from your /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files.

You can find such files with:

grep -r jessie /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list

then comment out problematic lines by adding # to the start and retry:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install build-essential g++ libqt4-core libqt4-dev libqt4-gui qt4-doc qt4-designer
