Thread: Has anybody been able to install Pg 9.3 beta .debs on Ubuntu 12.04
Hi Has anybody been able to install Pg 9.3 beta .debs on Ubuntu 12.04 when I try to select postgresql-9.3 (9,3~beta2-2.pgdg12.4+1) for installation I get error saying ... The following packages have unmet dependencies:postgresql-9.3 : Depends: postgresql-client-9.3 but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. I have tried it earlier on a system with multiple extra repos defined and so thought that this is my setup specific. Today I tried it on fresh install of 12.04 with only pgdg PPA added and still I can't add any packages from 9.3 series. I did successfully install versions 8.4, 9.0, 9.1 amd 9,2 side by side -- Hannu Krosing PostgreSQL Consultant Performance, Scalability and High Availability 2ndQuadrant Nordic OÜ

I seem to recall not adding "9.3" explicitly to the sources.list line as causing this problem. Is this you sources.list line: deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ precise-pgdg main 9.3 This is recommended by: https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt/FAQ#I_want_to_try_the_beta_version_of_the_next_PostgreSQL_release -Ryan
