 E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

E: Unable to correct dependencies



How to solve

  1. Open the /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log log file in a text editor.
  2. Locate any "broken" packages and remove them with sudo apt-get remove <package>.

Note: in newer versions, the log is located in /var/log/apt/term.log instead.


sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

make file for compiling c and c++ in linux

  Let's understand with an example: Suppose, we have 3 files       main.c  (main source file),      misc.c  (source file that contains function definition),       misc.h  (that contain function declaration).  Here we will declare and define a function named  myFunc()  to print something –  this function will be defined and declared in  misc.c  and  misc.h  respectively. misc.c 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 #include <stdio.h> #include "misc.h"   /*function definition*/ void myFunc( void ) {      printf ( "Body of myFunc function.\n" ); } misc.h 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 #ifndef MISC_H      #define MISC_H             /*function declaration.*/      void myFunc( void );        #endif main.c 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 #include <stdio.h> #include "misc.h"  ...

Compiling, linking, Makefile, header files

   Compiling, linking, Makefile, header files Splitting your program into multiple files The programs we have seen so far have all been stored in a single source file. As your programs become larger, and as you start to deal with other people's code (e.g. other C libraries) you will have to deal with code that resides in multiple files. Indeed you may build up your own library of C functions and data structures, that you can re-use in your own scientific programming and data analysis. Here we will see how to place C functions and data structures in their own file(s) and how to incorporate them into a new program. We saw in the section on functions, that one way of including custom-written functions in your C code, is to simply place them in your main source file, above the declaration of the  main()  function. A better way to re-use functions that you commonly incorporate into your C programs is to place them in their own file, and to include a statement above  ...
