GParted not working error while loading shared libraries: libgtkmm-2.4.so.1

I can't run gparted.



I have purged and reinstalled and the error persists.



Here's the output of running sudo gparted in the terminal

Need to get 46.4 MB of archives.
After this operation, 332 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]


This says that it is already installed however it wants to install a ton of extras with a load of dependencies which I'm reluctant to do given that it says that the specific package that it is complaining about is already installed so have my doubts these extras would resolve anything.



How should I proceed?

  • It doesn't do anything. O to upgrade, newly install, remove or not upgrade. I suspect this is because it installs gparted without issue therefore as far as apt is concerned there is no dependency conflict which requires -f to be run.

When I run those I get libatkmm-1.6-1v5 is already at the newest version, libatkmm-1.6-1v5 is set to be manually installed and libgtkmm-2.4-1v5 is already at the newest version. Now those first two are identically named packages therefore how can it say the first is at the newest version and for the second which is the exactly named same named as first package is set to be manually installed. Confused.
