So I recently came across wsl and was trying to configure postgres with it but I am not able to do so, I am following these instruction - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/wsl-database
but when I run the command:
sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib
I receive this error -
Reading package lists... Done

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:
postgresql : Depends: postgresql-13 but it is not going to be installed
postgresql-contrib : Depends: postgresql-contrib-13
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I have gone through some other answers related to this issue too and have tried running-
sudo aptitude install postgresql postgresql-contrib
output:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libllvm6.0{a} libpq5{ab} postgresql postgresql-13{ab} postgresql-client-13{ab} postgresql-contrib sysstat{a}
