After being upgraded from Ubuntu 16.04 to Ubuntu 18.04, my os keeps encountering different issues in particular package dependency problems. One example is the installation of latex/pdf-related applications (e.g. texworks, kile, etc) shown below.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libpoppler-qt5-1 : Depends: libpoppler73 (= 0.62.0-2ubuntu2.x) but 0.62.0-2ubuntu2.xx is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
libpoppler-qt5-1 is a Qt5-based PDF rendering library. The dependency issue happened here due to the out-of-date package requirement of libpoppler-qt5-1, thus we need only to downgrade the libpoppler73 library (x is the precise version required in the issue report of your os).
sudo apt install libpoppler73=0.62.0-2ubuntu2.xsudo apt install libpoppler-qt5-1
Happy new year!!!
