I'm a new Linux user and installed Linux Mint 20 yesterday (Cinnamon), and downloaded ClamTK 0.03-1. I've now been trying to install plugins for Visual Studio, but I keep getting the 'apt-get to fix missing and broken packages' message. Even more, when I try the solutions that people use for getting around these issues, the command line then
tells me:
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
thunar-sendto-clamtk : Depends: clamtk but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
And when I try to uninstall ClamTK, I am quickly met with this message:
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
So as you can see, I am stuck in a rut where I can't install or uninstall anything, and nothing I've tried seems to work. I'm a new Linux user, so there's clearly something that I'm not seeing. I frankly don't know how to use ClamTK, as I installed it based on an article recommendation. Surely with the right settings, ClamTK will allow me to install and uninstall programs without hassle. I can't find anything about this issue elsewhere, as documentation for ClamTK is almost non-existent. Any help is much appreciated.
