FossaDog - Synaptic error while installing Okular software(SOLVED)

[soniabu]

Hello to all, my system is:

I wanted to install Okular and while doing the installation it gave me this error which I find allamante.
Can you suggest me how to behave?
thanks
sonia
P.S.
I saw among other things that Okular has installed it and it also seems to work.

Did you add a repo for okular or was it in the Ubuntu repo or what?

It might be an incompatible version thing. Since Fossa is the newest kid on the block, I'd try an older Ubuntu Dog or even a Debian Dog and see if that's it (or look at the documentation, which is painful ).

Hi Sonia, I tried on latest Fossadog (not sure if that makes any difference) and Okular installed just fine.
Maybe it helps to click 'Reload' in Synaptic and try again?

I saw among other things that Okular has installed it and it also seems to work

So you mean it seems installed and working? In that case it may be ok, I guess, but better try again to install it.

1) I haven't added repo for Okular; Okular the one present in Synaptic;
2) Ok I reload everything
3) Okular seems to work for now, but I'll try to reinstall it.

I opened Synaptic to Reload and I got the warning that I had a broken file in the system and to use the broken function; this appeared.
***I ran the reload and now it seems that everything is resolved.***

Can you try "Fix broken packages" ?
(assuming you clicked Reload first)
