Can't install Akonadi Cosole

[barraclm]

Would someone kindly interpret the following message which I get when I try to install the Akonadi Console via Muon. If I try using the KDE Software Center nothing happens at all.

The "akonadiconsole" package could not be marked for installation or upgrade:
Depends: akonadiconsole, but it is not installable
Depends: akonadiconsole, but it is not installable

[GreyGeek]

In your repository software sources check all the lines that are not "[Source Code] and retry.

[barraclm]

Nothing checked that is not Source Code

Nothing checked that is not Source Code

I didn't make my self clear, which is becoming entirely too frequent these days. CHECK every box on every line that is not labeled "[Source Code]", except the CDROM line. There is no need to check the boxes in front of the "[Source Code]" lines.

Actually, you were very clear. That is exactly what I did and zip

For grins & giggles, open a Konsole and issue


sudo apt -f upgrade
sudo dpkg --configure -a


If you get an error repeat those two commands.

$ apt-cache rdepends akonadiconsole

I suspect that you may have a version number dependency, or one of the dependencies is not installed.

[barraclm]

No issue with
sudo apt -f upgrade
sudo dpkg --configure -a

both complete without error. However,

using sudo apt install akonadiconsole

I get

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
akonadiconsole : Depends: kdepim-runtime but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libkf5messageviewer5 (>= 4:16.04.0) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

[GreyGeek]

In muon is a “status” option called “Broken”. It *should* list broken packages and you can you can reinstall or remove them.
You can also try to install libk5messageviewer5 alone.

No such status
No such package

You missed it:

[barraclm]

oops! Thank you for adding to my understanding. However, no broken packages.

akonadiconsole depends on kdepim-runtime but it depends on libk5messageviewer5. That package conflicts with a similar package. Did you install something from the plasma4 desktop?

libfk5messageviewer5 replaces libmessageviewer5 but breaks its dependencies. You might try uninstalling libmessageviewer5 and kdepim-addons and re-attempt installing akonadiconsole.

[barraclm]

The base problem seems to be that libmessageviewer5 needs kf5-kdepim-apps-libs-data (= 4:16.04.3-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed becuae kf5-kdepim-apps-libs-data is already the newest version (4:16.12.3-0ubuntu1~ubuntu17.04~ppa2).

[GreyGeek]

“ppa2”?
Are you pulling KDE packages from a PPA as well as Ubuntu’s repository?
