Ubuntu 16.04, docker, no packages installed at all. I have package A, which depends on ffmpeg:
# apt show A
...
Depends: ..., ffmpeg (= 3.4-7), ...
...
I have newer (than system one) ffmpeg version in my custom aptly repo, but since 7: prefix it is lower:
# apt policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 7:2.8.11-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
Version table:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
A : Depends: ffmpeg (= 3.4-7) but 7:2.8.11-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
But
apt install ffmpeg=3.4-7 && apt install A
works!
- Why
apthave such behavior? - How to make
apt install Awork as expected?
