INDI install failing

I have been trying to install Indi under Mint 20 and have experienced problems. Is the file broken or am I doing something wrong?

I am getting the following error:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install indi-full gsc

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
indi-full : Depends: indi-gphoto but it is not going to be installed
Depends: indi-pentax but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Thanks for any help. I feel this may be at the core of a problem I was having installing oacapture earlier. The problems now are with a new install of Mint.

Please see indilib.org/forum/general/7563-libraw19-...nflict-in-1-8-6.html for more info. There is a dependency issue on libraw20. You can try changing your install to
sudo apt-get install indi-full gsc libraw20

But you may get issues if you use this computer for more than just indi/kstars.

Thanks Rick, That did the job. Is this going to be a temporary or permanent fix?

If all you use your machine for is kstars, you should be fine if the command above worked for you. If you have other tools that need libraw19 (like oacapture, gimp, and any imaging programs from the main distro), you'll likely need the fix that will allow them to be installed side-by-side. Devs are looking into ways to get libraw20 and libraw19 installed side-by-side, and a couple of people have tested it, but I think @knro wants to be very sure about the fix before making the change.

I removed libraw20 from the repo and now will build KStars again to use whatever libraw is available by defualt. This will remove CR3 support but I guess that's better than having conflict with other packages.

@knro Does indi-pentax still depend on libraw20? I'm trying to do a fresh install on 20.04 using the stable ppa and I'm getting the following error:
sudo apt install -y indi-full
