When I ran sudo apt-get install mint-meta-cinnamon,

I got these errors :

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: mint-meta-cinnamon : Depends: cinnamon-screensaver-x-plugin but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I tried so hard and I even tried to install them one by one but it didn't work. Can someone help please? Thanks!

  • Have you tried `sudo apt-get install cinnamon-screensaver-x-plugin` first? –  Jul 05 '19 at 01:37
  • Yeah, then I got this error: `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: cinnamon-screensaver-x-plugin : Depends: cinnamon-screensaver (>= 3.1.0) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.` – Cracker Jul 05 '19 at 01:41
  • Not sure what's happening there. Sometimes I find I can get a better grasp on things using the gui `synaptic`. –  Jul 05 '19 at 02:02
  • ... try deleting here and reposting to https://askubuntu.com (as you have included an `ubuntu` tag). Good luck. – shellter Jul 05 '19 at 16:01
