The package libdlib-dev isn't available for Ubutnu 14.04.It is only available for xenial, artful, bionic and cosmic.

see Package: libdlib-dev

Welcome to stackoverflow David

Usually adding the respective repository before installation helps solve the issue Try finding the repo and use the commands below

sudo add-apt-repository repo-name

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt install package-name

if not, you can go through this link http://www.iasptk.com/ubuntu-fix-broken-package-best-solution/ , might help you fix the issue. Feel free to ask if any clarification needed

  • When I run sudo add-apt-repository it shows 'need a repository as argument' – David Chan Oct 16 '18 at 06:07
  • edited my solution, u need to find the correct repo to the corresponding package that you need to install, use this as an example https://thishosting.rocks/install-java-ubuntu/ – Fahad Sheikh Oct 16 '18 at 06:19
  • I want to install libdlib-dev,a repository of c,not java.Thank you, but the answer is not what I want. – David Chan Oct 16 '18 at 07:03
