Can't install libx11-dev on Debian Buster

#1 Post by v45ch3 »

I would like to install this and several other dependencies that are preventing me from installing qt5-style-kvantum. When I try to install them from terminal it says that they cannot locate the package. The following is the ONLY line that I have on my sources.list file:

deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib non-free

Is that correct? I'm sorry but it seems that there should be more lines right? I'm new to linux so I am not sure.

My DE is KDE

Thanks!

What's that doing there if you have Debian Buster?

No, it's not correct at all.
There certainly should be more lines. It should look like this Example_sources.list.
DebianStable

Code: Select all

$ vrms

No non-free or contrib packages installed on debian!  rms would be proud.
