Dependency is not satisfiable when installing .deb file

[astralpr0jector]

Trying to install a .deb software (its a typewriter trainer).
Getting the error:
"Dependency is not satisfiable: libqtcore4 (>= 4:4.7.0~beta1)"

Sorry that Im not explaining the context/machine info/logs - just not sure what other info is needed.

Pls help.

G'day @astralpr0jector

I'll be out for a couple of hours Saturday morning shopping and someone else may help.

But meantime

1. What is the output in terminal of

   apt-cache policy libqtcore4

   ? and
2. Which Linux Mint are you using - version and desktop?

Also, be sure to run a Timeshift snapshot before you go looking for that dependency, to be sure you can rollback if something goes wrong.

Cheers

Terminal output:

libqtcore4:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: (none)
Version table:

System info;
Release Linux Mint 20.1 Ulyssa 64-bit
MATE 1.24.0
Desktop

Sweet, I have an Ulyana MATE in my stable, if you want to tell me the name of the typing trainer and the source for download, I can take a look at it when I get back from shopping if you like?

I had to use Google translate to find the Linux version of Stamina. Found this:

STAMINA.RU • Просмотр темы - Stamina под Linux, Mac...

qstamina_0.9.9-4_amd64.deb

View and download from Yandex Disk

yadi.sk

So there's good news and bad news.

Good news is that qstamina will install on Linux, here's a pic of mine

Bad news is that you will not be able to install it without going through a lot of hoops, nor likely will Brian @Condobloke , whom you have met.

Simple reason, your Linux is too new. More complicated than that, and I can explain on my tomorrow, but for now, if you take that command I gave you earlier, and modify it slightly to read as follows

apt-cache policy libqtcore*

... that's an asterisk instead of the 4 - I suspect you will find that yours is in the 5 series, let me know and I will cover it.

Cheers
