Libsdl2-dev (and some other packages) require libudev1-247.3-3ubuntu3.1, while the desktop environment requires version 247.3-3ubuntu3

Asked by Robin

Trying to install libsdl2-dev results in dependency issues, it seems that it requires the latest version of libudev1 while some component of my desktop environment requires an older version.

My system is Kubuntu 21.04, apt sources have not been modified.

Sorry if this is the wrong place, I didn't know where else to post this. Thank you for your time.

For diagnostic purposes, what is the output of the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
apt-cache policy libudev-dev libudev1

I assume the solution for your problem is the other way round:
sudo apt install libudev-dev=247.3-3ubuntu3
