Description
What is the bug or the crash?
When trying to install Qgis 3.44 Solothurn on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS using the instructions at the Qgis website for installing on Debian / Ubuntu, the installation for package qgis-plugin-grass failes with the error message:
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:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
qgis-plugin-grass : Depends: grass832
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Grass is already installed. Here is the output of the command apt list --installed grass :
Listing... Done
grass/noble,noble,now 8.3.2-1ubuntu2 all [installed]
I cannot find any package named grass832 in the repositories using apt.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- On Ubuntu 24.04 remove any existing installations of Qgis
- Follow the instructions on the Qgis website install page under the heading
Debian / Ubuntu
Quickstart - After adding the repo as described in those instructions, run sudo apt update
- Next run sudo apt install qgis Qgis should install
For good measure you can also install grass with sudo apt install grass - Next run sudo apt install qgis-plugin-grass
This will fail saying :
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
qgis-plugin-grass : Depends: grass832
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Check that grass 8.3.2 is installed with sudo apt list --installed grass
