I am trying to install MikTeX a software for writing LaTeX documents, I have
sudo apt install miktex
Suggesting on my ubuntu. But when I try to install it I get:
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:
miktex : Depends: libboost-locale1.65.1 but it is not installable
Depends: libhunspell-1.6-0 but it is not installable
Depends: libicu60 (>= 60.1-1~) but it is not installable
Depends: liblog4cxx10v5 (>= 0.10.0) but it is not installable
Depends: libssl1.1 (>= 1.1.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I cannot install the dependencies via apt since they are not in apt database, I do have used
sudo apt upgrade
and also
sudo apt install -f
but none of these work! I am frustrated with MikTeX so I’m asking here for a clear way to install it on my device.
