Unable to install VirtualBox on Ubuntu 18.04












0














When ever in run the following command to install VirtualBox 5.2



sudo apt-get install virtualbox-5.2


I get the following dependency is missing



The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualbox-5.2 : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2)
but it is not going to be installed


So I ran the following commands to try to install the missing/broken package



sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt install -f


The output from the final command says



0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.


In my /etc/apt/sources.list I have the following for virtual box



deb [arch=amd64] http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic contrib


So how to I go about fixing this error? I even tried to install it from the .deb package with the following command



sudo dpkg -i virtualbox-5.2_5.2.22-126460~Ubuntu~bionic_amd64.deb


I got the following output with different missing dependencies



dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of virtualbox-5.2:
virtualbox-5.2 depends on libqt5core5a (>= 5.9.0~beta); however:
Version of libqt5core5a:amd64 on system is 5.5.1+dfsg-16ubuntu7.5.
virtualbox-5.2 depends on libqt5opengl5 (>= 5.0.2); however:
Package libqt5opengl5 is not installed.
virtualbox-5.2 depends on libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.7.0); however:
Version of libqt5widgets5:amd64 on system is 5.5.1+dfsg-16ubuntu7.5.
virtualbox-5.2 depends on libqt5x11extras5 (>= 5.6.0); however:
Package libqt5x11extras5 is not installed.

    Why do you have extra source for virtualbox? Virtualbox is directly in Ubuntu repositories, no extra action needed

  • @marosg I tried to install it from the official repo too and got a different set of dependencies missing also. I am not sure what to do

  • Please add output of apt-cache policy libcurl3 libqt5core5a to the question. It seems that you have some repositories missed. Check them in software-properties-gtk.
