I'm unable to install anjuta studio in Ubuntu 15.04 using the Gnome 3.16 DE.

This is the output of terminal:

shivam@shivam-Inspiron-3521:~$ sudo apt-get install libjavascriptcoregtk-2.4.9-0
Reading package lists... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

You can install the following packages

  • libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0 (2.4.8-1ubuntu)
  • libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 (2.4.8-1ubuntu2)
  • libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 (2.6.2+dfsg1-4ubuntu1)

but not libjavascriptcoregtk-2.4.9-0.

And you had the PPA ppa:webkit-team in your system before and therefore libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 (2.4.9-0ubuntu1~15.04~webkitteam1) installed. If you need the PPA (again) jump at the end of my answer and ignore the next steps.

The problem is, libwebkit2gtk-3.0-25 from the Standard Ubuntu Repositories needs exactly libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 (2.4.8-1ubuntu2).

The fast solution is, downgrade the package libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0 via

sudo apt-get install libjavascriptcoregtk-3.0-0=2.4.8-1ubuntu2

but you should use the commands below to downgrade all packages, upgraded by the PPA ppa:webkit-team

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:webkit-team
sudo apt-get update
sudo ppa-purge ppa:webkit-team

In the future, use ppa-purge to remove a PPA from your system.

If you need the PPA, add it again and use it and your problem will be solved, too

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:webkit-team
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
