Unmet dependencies for V1.8.10 LinuxMint Debian

Post by proteus »

I'm attempting to install the required tools and libraries prior to installing MakeMKV V1.8.10 on LinuxMint Debian. Specifics are
LMDE Cinnamon 64-bit; Cinnamon version 2.0.14; Linux Kernel 3.11.2-amd64.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libc6-dev libssl-dev libexpat1-dev libavcodec-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libqt4-dev
installs the first three (3) packages with additional errors. Specifying the remaining packages

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libexpat1-dev libavcodec-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libqt4-dev
produces the following messages:

Code: Select all

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libgl1-mesa-dev : Depends: mesa-common-dev (= 9.2.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libgl1-mesa-glx (= 9.2.2-1) but 10.1.0-5 is to be installed
                   Depends: libdrm-dev (>= 2.4.45) but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libx11-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libx11-xcb-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxcb-dri2-0-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxcb-glx0-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxdamage-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxext-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxfixes-dev but it is not going to be installed
                   Depends: libxxf86vm-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have heudo apt-get install --fix-broken
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremoveld broken packages.
So I do

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install --fix-broken
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremove
and I attempt to re-install the above packages but get the exact same messages again.
Does anyone know why those packages can't be installed? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

UPDATE:
I was able to install all the above packages but one: libgl1-mesa-dev
I attempted to individually install the remaining packages one by one until all installed but libgl1-mesa-dev.
It's obviously this package that is getting the unmet dependencies, but I have no clue as to what it's trying to tell me.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install  libgl1-mesa-dev
