Trying to install virtualbox - unmet dependencies
So I am trying to install virtualbox 6.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS and it seems to be having dependency problems.
I've confirmed the sources.list file contains
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic contrib
and I have used update
multiple times with nothing showing up to be updated.
Also apt-get -f install
did not help either. Here is what I get when i run sudo apt-get install virtualbox-6.0
:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualbox-6.0 : Depends: libqt5x11extra5 (>= 5.6.0) but it is not installable
Recommends: libsdl-ttf2.0-0 but it is not installable
Recommends: pdf-viewer
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
And dpkg --get-selections | grep hold
doesn't return anything.
Any ideas?

The line in my sources.list looks like this:deb [arch=amd64] https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic contrib
I suggest adding the [arch=amd64] and trying again.

I just fixed it by addingdeb http://cz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic main universe
to my sources.list file
