[GRASS-user] dependencies for libgdal1-dev

[Damian M]

I am having issues with gdal on my Ubuntu 12.04 machine.  After upgrades a
little while back  I cannot run or compile GRASS 6.4svn or 6.5svn that were
working previously, but I can run a version of GRASS installed at the
command line with apt-get.  I also cannot use R's spatial packages that
depend on gdal.

The issue seems to be with libgdal1-dev, which does not seem to be on the
machine.

dpkg -s libgdal1-dev

produces:

Package `libgdal1-dev' is not installed and no info is available.
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

apt-get install libgdal1-dev

produces:

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:
 libgdal1-dev : Depends: libgeos-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev

produces:

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:
 libgeos-dev : Depends: libgeos-c1 (= 3.2.2-3ubuntu1) but 3.3.1-1+opengeo is
to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Which seems to indicate a version conflict with the dependency libgeos-c1.

I have tried addressing the broken package issue (such as what is described
here:
http://www.thepowerbase.com/2012/04/how-to-fix-broken-packages-in-ubuntu-or-debian/)
but it has not fixed the problem.

Any suggestions on how to correct this problem would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you.
