Since amarok has been removed from the repository, I'm trying to install elisa instead, but can't because of this:

Code: Select all

# apt-get install elisa

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:

I have checked for held packages and there are none:

Code: Select all

# dpkg --get-selections | grep hold


When I look for upgrades to the dependencies, I find none, so apparently elisa depends on cersions that aren't even inthe repository?

Which exact Plasma version and distribution?

Sorry, my bad, I should have said so:

Code: Select all

# cat /etc/*release*
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"
VERSION_CODENAME=buster
ID=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"
# plasmashell --version
plasmashell 5.14.5


right, your Plasma version is too old for these packages, so either you activate the necessary repositories in Debian unstable, or you install Amarok 2.9.71, which we just released as an Alpha version. The dependencies are not as high

Thank you! I like Amarok, actually, but it has disappeared from debian, so I'll build it from source.
