Bug Description
[Description]
On Ubuntu 14.04.2 with updated kernel and X stack (LTS Enablement Stacks) package resolver fails to find *-lts-utopic package dependencies, aborts.
[Test case]
$ sudo apt-get -o debug::
(Log attached as apt.log)
[Workaround]
Manually resolve:
$ sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev libgles2-
Possible catch all solution:
$ sudo apt-get install .*-dev-lts-utopic
[Speculation]
Control file of libgles2-
http://
Guess APT just get overwhelmed by the possibilies and aborts before finding the right one.
Is there some SAT-solver, which could conform? Aptitude's resolver fails, too.
Could control files be tweaked to make resolving easier?
[Possible affected packages]
Possible all packages which have dependencies on *-mesa-dev for which there's an updated version in the LTS Enablement Stacks.
Roughly:
$ apt-cache rdepends .*-mesa-dev

I had this issue and then purged my system of the Intel Linux Graphics Installer packages, downgrading packages to the latest available in trusty-updates as appropriate. After doing that I was successfully able to install 14.04.2 using the Utopic HWE stack.


There seems to be quite a number of devel packages that can't be installed or installed via normal means. /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ freeglut/ +bug/1424466 /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ glew/+bug/ 1429464 /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ libsdl2/ +bug/1429623 /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ libsdl1. 2/+bug/ 1429625
