Zeal from the PPA has unmet dependences

  • 772

I'm trying to install Zeal through ppa in Ubuntu 13.04, but is giving the error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 zeal : Depends: libqt5core5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt5gui5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt5network5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt5sql5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt5xml5 (>= 5.0.2) but 5.0.1+dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 is to be installed

I tried to install qt5-qtwebkit but keeps the same error. Any clue what could be?

    You need to add two ppa's to install Zeal:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jerzy-kozera/zeal-ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zeal

    This is since zeal depends of Qt5, which is not available in repositories.

  2. Zeal has an official PPA. You can use that to install it.

    $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:zeal-developers/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install zeal

    Now you can search for zeal app or you can launch it from terminal using zeal command.

    This install zeal without any problems. I have used other PPA's also but they failed because of unmet dependencies.
