I want use SDL2 in my project. For that I need lib and include SDL2 files. I was trying to install SDL2 with

apt-get install libsdl2-dev

but get an errors:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libpulse-dev : Depends: libpulse0 (= 1:14.2-1ubuntu1) but 1:14.2-1ubuntu1.1 is to be installed
                Depends: libpulse-mainloop-glib0 (= 1:14.2-1ubuntu1) but 1:14.2-1ubuntu1.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

How I can fix it?

In my question, I wrote that I want to install which command I do it and gave an error log. Please tell me what exactly is not clear to you.

@mejay48 Try this `sudo sed -i.bak 's/\(^deb.*-updates.*\)/#\1/' /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt install libsdl2-dev`.

It seems updates channel prompt you to install `1:14.2-1ubuntu1.1` version, hence why i try disabling it. I could be wrong though, you can try `apt-get -s install libsdl2-dev` to simulate the process before actually running them.

Minor version errors like this *usually* occur because the package catalog needs to be updated (`sudo apt update`)

So, I can't find a reason of errors of sdl2 package, but manual compilation from source helps me install it (./configure, sudo make install).

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
