Cannot install libegl1-mesa

Wed Aug 14, 2013 9:39 pm

I'm a Linux newb.

Trying to install libegl1-mesa-dev, but after a apt-get update/upgrade, libegl1-mesa is complaining that it requires an older version of libwayland0 (0.85.0-2) that what's installed (1.1.0-0rpi1).

I'm not really sure how to get out of this situation. Any suggestions?

Exact output from Pi:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo apt-get install libegl1-mesa-dev
