Can't install ffmpeg 6 on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Asked by jawb

I tried to install ffmpeg 6 after adding the ppa for the 4 and 6, but I get this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 ffmpeg : Depends: libavcodec60 (= 7:6.0-0ubuntu1~22.04.sav1)
          Depends: libavfilter9 (= 7:6.0-0ubuntu1~22.04.sav1)

                 Depends: libavformat60 (= 7:6.0-0ubuntu1~22.04.sav1)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Please advise, many thanks.

You are using packages from a PPA.
This is support only for software from the "official" Ubuntu repositories.

If you have problems with packages from a PPA, then you have to contact the PPA provider. See the page with the information about the PPA and you find a link to the launchpad web page of the provider of the PPA and there is a link "contact this user".

Can you help with this problem?
