Title: K3b Install Error
Post by: Jocklad on August 27, 2015, 07:07:58 AM
Ok I know....I Know. K3b pulls in dependencies from all over the place.

But I still like to use it for burning and ripping.

Had no problem with 2.2 but 2.4 keeps throwing up errors with sudo apt-get install K3b as below:

ben@ben-Calistoga-ICH7M-Chipset:~$ sudo apt-get install K3b

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

 k3b : Depends: kde-runtime but it is not going to be installed

Grateful for any help.

Open up Install/Remove Software, you can remove broken packages in there.

 Thanks Jerry but no Joy.

 Also tried setting packages to default in Tweaks but same install error.

Thanks Jerry but still getting same errors.

Think I will leave this now until 2.6 is released and do a clean install.

One of the many thrills when mixing software from one DE to another :)

Brasero, X-CD-Roast, and GnomeBaker bring less dependencies than K3B.

Hello!

Glad you got it all sorted out.

I am not a big KDE fan, but I needed TV software, so I installed Kaffeine. Out of the very few choices Linux offers for such software, sadly, it seems to be the best option available...
