adamiled opened a new issue #2052: Installation Problem libcurl3 conflicts with curl (Unbuntu 18.04.2)
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2052
 
 
   
   
   ## Description
   Im installing couchdb on Ubuntu 18.04. as I follow the steps for installation on http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/install/unix.html#installation-using-the-apache-couchdb-convenience-binary-packages i find myself with quite the problem. 
   
   When I apt install curl to run 
   
   
   curl -L https://couchdb.apache.org/repo/bintray-pubkey.asc \
       | sudo apt-key add -
   
   Everything works, but as i type sudo apt-get install couchdb
   i receive the error : The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    couchdb : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2) but it is not going to be installed
   E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages
   
   I then download /apt get install libcurl3. But here comes the problem, since libcurl3 conflits with Curl/libcurl4. I cant keep the two of them, So when i install libcurl3, libcurl4 and curl gets uninstalled.  So when i run :curl -L https://couchdb.apache.org/repo/bintray-pubkey.asc     | sudo apt-key add - i get the error:
   
    Command 'curl' not found, but can be installed with:
   
   sudo apt install curl
   
   gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
   
   
   and when i run sudo apt-get install couchdb i get this error:
   The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    couchdb : Depends: curl
   E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
   
   I need both depencencies but only one is installed at a time.
