I tried installing clang on Ubuntu 18.04, but I could not install it. I tried sudo apt install clang and got these results:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
clang : Depends: clang-6.0 (>= 6.0~) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I read some answers about held packages and tried sudo aptitude install clang, but it also didn't work.
I got the following results:
