Thank you for the prompt response. Just to clarify, you're suggesting pinning the Ubuntu 'mainstream' libprotobuf9 ahead of the libprotobuf9v5 coming from the PPA? Also, should I add/remove any of the other PPAs managed under the "Ubuntu containers team". Obviously I've been using the http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-lxc/lxd-git-master/ubuntu. Would it help to add the related backports PPA, http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-lxc/buildd-backports/ubuntu ?

Status in protobuf package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: (1) # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 15.04 Release: 15.04 # uname -a Linux IPC1 3.19.0-25-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 24 21:17:31 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux (2) # apt-cache policy qtcreator libprotobuf9v5 libprotobuf9 qtcreator: Installed: 3.1.1-0ubuntu9 Candidate: 3.1.1-0ubuntu9 Version table: *** 3.1.1-0ubuntu9 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status libprotobuf9v5: Installed: (none) Candidate: 2.6.1-1.2~ubuntu15.04.1~ppa1 Version table: 2.6.1-1.2~ubuntu15.04.1~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-lxc/lxd-git-master/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages libprotobuf9: Installed: 2.6.1-1 Candidate: 2.6.1-1 Version table: *** 2.6.1-1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status (3) I expected the the updated libprotobuf9, newly renamed upstream to libprotobuf9v5, to install and provide an alias/symlink/virtual package to continue satisfying the dependencies of myriad other programs. (4) During regular system upgrade in the last two days or so, I get the following: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libprotobuf9v5 : Conflicts: libprotobuf9 but 2.6.1-1 is installed. The following actions will resolve these dependencies: Remove the following packages: 1) libegl1-mesa-dev 2) libgles2-mesa-dev 3) libmirclient-dev 4) libmircommon-dev 5) libprotobuf-dev 6) libqt5opengl5-dev 7) libqt5sensors5-dev 8) libqt5webkit5-dev 9) libqt5websockets5-dev 10) libqt5xmlpatterns5-dev 11) python-protobuf 12) qt3d5-dev 13) qt5-default 14) qtbase5-dev 15) qtdeclarative5-dev 16) qtlocation5-dev 17) qtmultimedia5-dev 18) qtpositioning5-dev 19) qtscript5-dev 20) qttools5-dev 21) ubuntu-sdk 22) ubuntu-sdk-libs-dev Keep the following packages at their current version: 23) libprotobuf9v5 [Not Installed] Leave the following dependencies unresolved: 24) qtcreator recommends qt5-default 25) qtcreator recommends qtbase5-dev 26) qtcreator recommends qtdeclarative5-dev 27) qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu recommends ubuntu-sdk Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] I tried to let Ubuntu calculate multiple other solutions but all proposed look dubious to me and I've not tried any of them. I particularly interested in item 23 above but am not clear how to proceed. When I've explicitly tried to install libprotobuf9v5 directly, a much more terrible solution is proposed. From what I can tell with Google search, "https://www.google.com/search?q=libprotobuf9v5+%3A+Conflicts%3A+libprotobuf9+but+2.6.1-1+is+installed.";, this appears to be caused by an upstream renaming of the package from libprotobuf9 --> libprotubuf9v5, as indicated in the various change logs.
