The proposed repository you should only use if you are able to solve problems. The latest scilab version in the offical Ubuntu repositories is 5.5.1

Open the file sources.list:

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

and comment out the line that contains proposed with a #, eg:

# deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu vivid-proposed multiverse restricted universe main

Then run this commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install scilab
