Linux Lite Forums

Can someone Help me with installing VLC media player for Linux Lite 4.4
when i trying to install, it showing:

Code:
Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

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:

 vlc : Depends: vlc-plugin-video-output (= 3.0.1-3) but it is not going to be installed

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Hello Nuginity,

these are the software install, and uninstall, guide -

https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/softw...stsoftware

VLC is already installed, there is no need to install it again.

i don't know what happen, the VLC dissapear from my linux, and i tried to install it again, and it say i need to fix the broken packages, and when i tried to fix that
the synaptic says :

Code:
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

E: Unable to correct dependencies

What is the output of:

Code:
grep -r --include '*.list' '^deb ' /etc/apt/ | sed -re 's/^\/etc\/apt\/sources\.list((\.d\/)?|(:)?)//' -e 's/(.*\.list):/\[\1\] /' -e 's/deb http:\/\/ppa.launchpad.net\/(.*?)\/ubuntu .*/ppa:\1/'

here is it :

Try the following from Terminal:

Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a

sudo apt-get install -f 

sudo apt install vlc

It might help.
