CodeLite and wxCrafter

[marklar12]

Can this be fixed?
The code shows what I'm trying to do and (for those that understand) why I can't.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://repos.codelite.org/ubuntu/ artful universe'

Have you tried running from the command line:

sudo apt-get -f install

I'm not entirely sure I qualify as one of 'those that understand' .

Assuming your /etc/apt/sources.list is sane, you are running Mint Sylvia, which is based on xenial. I don't package for Mint itself, but the xenial packages should install and work without a problem. The current xenial CodeLite/wxCrafter from our repo is 13.0, the latest release.

However you just added artful, for which we provide CodeLite 12.0; there's no reason to expect that to install on a xenial-based system (it might but it's not tested, let alone guaranteed.)

To add to my confusion, apt is complaining (inter alia) about libwx*3.0-0v5 (>= 3.0.3.1+dfsg2) which are official debian wx packages. Our repo contains CodeLite packages which are built against, and contain, our unofficial wx packages (the xenial 13.0 ones use wx3.1.0) and so do not depend on wx3.0.3.

Perhaps you could explain a little more about your situation; in particular, what is your distro/version, why add artful, and what does apt (or synaptic or...) say are the available CodeLite and wxWidgets packages and which are preferred?

Regards,

David
