ubuntu-release-upgrader package

unmet dependencies: freeglut3-dev : depends freeglut3 libgl1-mesa-dev

Asked by qode

Tried to install wxWidgets and needed some additional libraries. Libglew1.6-dev wasn't found, so I found it on packages.ubuntu and installed it manually. Now I get this error of unmet dependencies for freeglut3-dev, which needs freeglut3 or libgl1-mesa-dev or lbglu1-mesa-dev or libtxt-dev.

"sudo apt-get -f install" - gives the same answer: unmet dependencies for freeglut3-dev; Unable to correct dependencies.

sudo apt-get install freeglut3 gives:
E: unmet dependencies: libgl1-mesa-dev and libglu1-mesa-dev

sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dev gives:
E: unmet dependencies: freeglut3 (=2.8.1-1) but it is not going to be installed
libglu1-mesa-dev; libtxt-dev
