Codelite installation unmet dependencies

Question

I would like to update the repository of my system

holger@ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="14.04.5 LTS, Trusty Tahr"
holger@ubuntu:~$ uname -m
i686

with a newer codelite version (9.1), as the offical ubuntu repository contains an old one (2.8). I followed these instructions: How to install the latest version of codelite?

But I see this dependency error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  codelite : Depends: liblldb-3.6 but it is not installable
          Recommends: lldb (>= 3.4) but it is not installable
          Recommends: nodejs but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The installed version is:

liblldb-3.9/trusty-security,now 1:3.9.1-4ubuntu3~14.04.2 i386 [installed]

I appreciate any ideas how to fix it.

Edit: By checking on the codelite dependencies, I see the following:

holger@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get build-dep codelite
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libgtk2.0-dev : Depends: libglib2.0-dev (>= 2.27.3) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev (>= 2.21.0) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libpango1.0-dev (>= 1.20) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libatk1.0-dev (>= 1.29.2) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libcairo2-dev (>= 1.6.4-6.1) but it is not going to be installed
                 Depends: libxrandr-dev (>= 2:1.2.99) but it is not going to be installed
E: Build-dependencies for codelite could not be satisfied.

libgtk2.0-dev depends on libglib2.0-dev and other libs. When I try to install libglib2.0-dev, I get the following error:

So the dependend libs are on my system, they just differ in the minor release number. As I understand it I need version 2.40.0-2 for libglib2.0-0 but have version 2.40.2-0ubuntu1 installed.

What repo can I get these packages from? The standard repo only allows to install this version:

> holger@ubuntu:~$ apt search libglib2.0
> ...  
> libglib2.0-dev/trusty
> 2.40.0-2 i386   Development files for the GLib library

Please let me know, what am I missing here?

What you could do is install it from its repository. From the website TipsUbuntu, it has instructions for the latest version 9.2 here.

1. sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://repos.codelite.org/ubuntu/ trusty universe" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/codelite.list' <- Add the repository.
2. sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys http://repos.codelite.org/CodeLite.asc <- Setup the key trust.
3. sudo apt update && sudo apt install codelite wxcrafter <- Install!
4. If it gives you any dependency issues, you can fix them with sudo apt-get install -f

Hope this helps!
