[Qgis-user] QGIS 2.12 unmet dependencies in Ubuntu

[César Augusto Ramírez Franco]

Hello Martin,

According to the documentation available on the link you provided, the
Ubuntu versions which have ubuntugis dependencies available for QGIS are
only the LTS releases (i.e. 12.04 and 14.04), since you are on a non-LTS
release of Ubuntu (15.10) you should use the 'release' branch of qgis.

Your qgis entry on apt sources.list should look like this:

deb http://qgis.org/debian wily main # For QGIS 2.12

or

deb http://qgis.org/debian-ltr wily main # For QGIS 2.8

Greetings
