I am new to Ubuntu Linux. My Professor asked us to download Ubuntu 10.10. I have made several attempts to download MySQL as 32 and 64 bit in Debian packages and it keeps failing. See below for what i wrote in the terminal. As you can see I get an error. I also get an error in the Ubuntu Software Center stating " Dependency is not satisfiable: libatkmm-1.6-1 (>= 2.22.1) ". Could you please give me some guidance so I know what I am doing wrong. Thank you in advance.

    10.10? NO he did not... he should know 10.10 is end of life. Use 12.04 and mysql+workbench will install :+ Beside that for future installing: when using DPKG you must manually install all the dependencies.

Open your terminal. Write the following:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libctemplate0 libzip1 python-pysqlite2 mysql-client python-crypto python-paramiko
sudo apt-get install mysql-workbench

Press Enter and write down your password then another Enter. Done

    @kamil That's not what I meant. I meant the dependencies don't exist on the mirrors anymore. 10.10 is EOL which means it is no longer supported. The user needs to use a non-End of Life release.

You want to install MySQL Workbench.

The version you try to install is made for Ubuntu 12.04 and has some versions requirements for some of the deps.

You need to try with MySQL Workbench for 10.04/10.10 if you are forced to use 10.10, but still it would be recommended to use 12.04.

Also, after you will install MySQL Workbench compatible with 10.10, you will need to do

sudo apt-get install -f

to fix dependencies.

If you downloaded from MySQL.com, then choose older versions (on the right side of Select Platform) and download 10.04 version. Choose 32 if your installation is on 32 or 64 in case of 64.

  • I downloaded Ubuntu Linux 10.04 (x86, 32-bit), DEB and the I get the same error. Is there something else that could be preventing me from installing MySQL? This is what I got when i entered the command you suggested above...is this what is suppose to happen?

  • try to clean any changes previous done. sudo dpkg --purge mysql-workbench-gpl no retry with the recent download and run sudo apt-get install -f to get all those deps.
