Here's a short way to see the failure: 1) make sure /etc/apt/sources.list has bionic-updates enabled for universe (and multiverse?) 2) sudo apt update 3) sudo apt install nodejs-dev libssl-dev ... The following packages have unmet dependencies: nodejs-dev : Depends: libssl1.0-dev (>= 1.0.2) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
In other words, the current nodejs-dev does not fit into the Ubuntu 18.04 ecosystem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1794589 Title: libssl1.0-dev conflicts libssl-dev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nodejs/+bug/1794589/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
