I had a similar issue: sudo apt install portaudio19-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done The following additional packages will be installed: libjack-dev libjack0 libportaudiocpp0 Suggested packages: jackd1 portaudio19-doc The following packages will be REMOVED: libasound2-plugins:i386 libjack-jackd2-0 libjack-jackd2-0:i386 The following NEW packages will be installed: libjack-dev libjack0 libportaudiocpp0 portaudio19-dev 0 upgraded, 4 newly installed, 3 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
BUT I SOLVED IT by installing libjack-jackd2-dev first. After that, sudo apt install portaudio19-dev runs without trying to uninstall anything. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to portaudio19 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1464913 Title: portaudio19-dev can't be installed without conflicts Status in portaudio19 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Release: 14.04 Package: portaudio19-dev 19+svn20140130-1 We have some issues with portaudio and jack 1/2, setting up a development environment. A solution involves uninstalling the default libjack-jackd2-0 What you expected to happen: Installing: portaudio19-dev should work without any issues on a stock install. What happened instead: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libjack-dev : Depends: libjack0 (= 1:0.121.3+20120418git75e3e20b-2.1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed This was original reported for Mixxx (Bug #1326653) The final build result (Mixxx) runs fine with libjack-jackd2-0 in place. Reinstalling libjack-jackd2-dev after portaudio19-dev works. libjack-dev is listed in the portaudio19-dev dependency. I do not know how libjack-jackd2-dev can satisfy this dependency, but this state should be somehow swapped.
