Public bug reported:
Hey,
I upgraded to ubuntu 20 and a red little minus sign popped up on my top right
corner about unmet package dependencies. I have tried all the commands like
"sudo dpkg --configure -a" "sudo apt install -f" but nothing seems to solve my
problem.
This is a big problem because I cant install new packages on my laptop without
solving this first.
Please reply as soon as possible.
The error message:
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
emacs : Depends: emacs-gtk (>= 1:26.3) but it is not installed or
emacs-lucid (>= 1:26.3) but it is not installed or
emacs-nox (>= 1:26.3) but it is not installed
emacs-bin-common : Depends: emacs-common (= 1:26.3+1-1ubuntu2) but it is not
installed
emacs-el : Depends: emacs-common (= 1:26.3+1-1ubuntu2) but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).
