Description

Following instructions for debian/ubuntu install (https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu).

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntugis-unstable rolled their version of GDAL to 2.2.2 on 23rd Nov, however as of 4th December even the nightly build of the ubuntugis package (https://qgis.org/ubuntugis-nightly-release/) is still specifying a dependency on GDAL 2.2.1 and therefore failing to install.

Shouldn't the nightly build have picked up the updated dependency change automatically?

Check libqgis-analysis2.18.14 - 2.18.13 is the previous point release.

Install is still failing.

https://qgis.org/ubuntugis/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages shows a dependency on gdal-abi-2-2-1.

I note the nightly build for 2.18.14 (see https://qgis.org/ubuntugis-nightly-release/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages) has dependency on gdal-abi-2-2-2, but I don't want the nightly build.

My setup is Linux Mint 18.3 with the following additional software sources:
deb http://qgis.org/ubuntugis xenial main
deb-src http://qgis.org/ubuntugis xenial main
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu xenial main

I'd have thought that this was expected. The point releases are generated monthly and you won't see the updates present in the nightly build reflected till the next one is generated.

#7 Updated by mesajs - almost 7 years ago

Understood. But it does make QGIS unstable, as it is now, something you would expect from the nightly build but not the latest release. Having a working QGIS suddenly disappear off the desktop and not be re-installable for up to a month hardly encourages users.

OK, there is a work around. But my guess is that most QGIS users on Linux Mint are happy using the Software Manager to install applications, but are not into workarounds that require use of the command line.

Well, it's not QGIS that is unstable - it's the base you're using. If you use plain ubuntu this wouldn't happen. See note on
https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu.

#9 Updated by Andrei Bagaev over 6 years ago

Seems that I have the same problem:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 python-qgis : Depends: python-qscintilla2 but it is not going to be installed

Any advice?

Linux Mint 18.3
