Sudo apt install doca-tools fails

While installing doca-tools on Host PC running Ubuntu 20.04, the command “sudo apt install doca-tools” failes with the following output:

Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
doca-tools is already the newest version (2.0.2-0.0.7).
You might want to run ‘apt --fix-broken install’ to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
doca-cx-tools : Depends: doca-cx-prime-tools (= 2.0.2027-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).

Does anyone know how to fix this??

Hi,

I resolved this problem by installing packages with unmet dependencies using aptitude. When encountering a package with unmet dependencies, I ran the following command:
sudo aptitude install <package_name>
Aptitude then provided recommended solutions to fix the problem. Typically, the first recommended solution didn’t resolve the issue. In such cases, I chose “no” to explore other possible solutions and selected the best one.
After successfully installing the required package, I attempted to install doca-tools again.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need any further information.
