Hello,

I have Ubuntu 14.04 64bit. I have been trying to install teamviewer on my machine. But I could not install libsm6:i386 that is one of teamviewer dependencies.

I tried below.

Code:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo apt-get install libsm6:i386

Reading package lists... Done

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:
 libsm6:i386 : Depends: libuuid1:i386 (>= 2.16) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages

But I got the result...

So I tried to install libuuid1:i386. It required another dependencies over and over again...

Could you tell me what should I do?

So glad to be Windows free (sortof) again!

So I consider myself if not an uber computer geek at least a "power user", and tried to keep my dual boot setup of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 for as long as I could. I need Windows currently because of some Windows-only software I need for my classes (hopefully won't need these ever again after I graduate). I was really fed up with Windows 10 (don't like all the telemetry crap, don't use the Windows app store, Cortana, forced updates, confusing settings options, interface in general). My last straw was the other night I had some school documents open and unsaved, and Windows decided to just restart on its own to apply some updates.

So I backed everything up, completely wiped Windows 10, did an Ubuntu 16.04 install with the option "erase disk and install Ubuntu", and now I am setting up a Virtualbox Windows 7 VM for those pesky Windows needs. So glad I don't have to deal with Windows 10 anymore, glad that I don't have to dual boot and just have Ubuntu as my main OS, and glad that Virtualbox is so awesome that I can use Windows through it and it's remarkably quick.

Anyway, just feel relieved
