package management - How can I slove postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1 unmet dependencies Ubuntu 14.04



I've installed PostgreSQL v9.3 (database) on Ubuntu 14.04 and I'm currently attempting to install the following:




sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1


However I'm getting the following error:




The following packages have unmet dependencies:
postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1 : Depends: libgdal1h (>= 1.9.0) but it is
not installable

Depends: libgeos-c1 (>= 3.4.2) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: liblwgeom-2.1.7 (>= 2.1.6) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libproj0 (>= 4.8.0-1) but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken
packages.




Please Note: I have already successfully installed the following:



sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.3 
sudo apt-get install postgresql-contrib-9.3

sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1-scripts


How can I solve this?



After some additional research I found the answer via the following questions
How do I resolve unmet dependencies after adding a PPA? which can be applied to this question as a solution.



In your terminal run




software-properties-gtk


Under Ubuntu Software tab, enable all the repositories



Next run



sudo apt-get update    
sudo apt-get upgrade



Finally run



sudo apt-get install  postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1


Worked successfully for me I hope this helps someone with the same issue install postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1 with unmet dependencies on Ubuntu 14.04
